4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect match for the Q1 and Q1 Ultra, December 29, 2007

First of all; ignore the complaints about the price, and how you can get a similar keyboard for $20. You can't.

This keyboard is a "normal" keyboard AND trackpoint mouse in one. It's the perfect size for the Q1, it's nice and thin and the keys are the right size for a decent amount of typing.

In addition to the normal keyboard layout, you also get shortcuts to some of the features of the Q1 and Q1 ultra like brightness and volume.

The trackpoint mouse is great and you have 2 mouse buttons under the spacebar.

It's almost a "must have" if you have a Q1 (ultra). It would have been perfect (5 stars) if it were wireless, it's just another way Samsung made their line of UMPC's more affordable.

4.0 out of 5 stars a good piece of hardware, December 16, 2007

I agree it's a little pricey for a keyboard, but it's worth it cuz it has the special function keys to match the Q1 Ultra. Like the battery and standby controls, sound and brightness controls, etc etc. And of course it's specially sized to fit in the Q1 Ultra carrying case. it's very thin, but sturdy. If you don't get the carrying case it comes with it's own very-well padded case.
It's a keeper.
Some online reviews have said it's too small to be useful but that's just not true at all. The overall width of the keys relative to a full-sized keyboard is really only about a half inch (from the A key to the semi-colon key). So slightly smaller but not enough to make your fingers be cramped at all and i have pretty fat fingers.
Oh and the best feature of all is the eraser-head mouse. !! To my taste, far superior to a touchpad. And of course it has the right and left mouse keys rights below the space bar.
Great piece, definitely worth it to go along with the Joyous Q1 Ultra.
btw it's not cordless. It does have a little usb cord.
The Q1 could run on a bluetooth keyboard if you wanted, i think.

This keyboard is the best accessory to the Samsung Q1 UMPC, together with the organizer. Together, they make the perfect mobile PC. The special function keys on this keyboard allows control of volume, brightness, display toggle. The size is perfect for touch typing.
