New keyboard review and looks awesome!

I just read this:

I wonder if this will work with the HD200 / HD100's? This looks pretty awesome. While not a replacement for everything it would be nice to sift through our library of movies!

It does... I bought one a couple weeks ago and works great. The only thing i wish was that the scroll wheel would be translated into directional pad navigation and the button clicks mapped to Select/Enter

Does it work with both extenders or just the HD-200? I wasn't aware that devices like this would work on the HD-100. Hopefully you can confirm that it does work with the HD-100.

Haven't tried with the hd100 (i do have one so i can fire it up and try). But iirc the hd100 doesn't support any keyboards. I'll test and report back.

OK - thanks!

I would be surprised if it does work with the HD-100, but since I see that you have both listed in your signature, I wasn't sure if your original answer was for just the HD-200 or if you had tried out both.

Still, I'd love it if you do have a chance to test it with the HD-100. Perhaps Sage has slipped something in with a firmware change or something. (Wishfull thinking I know....).

So I got the keyboard and plugged it in but it doesn't work

Anyone have one of these and had it working? Maybe I need to reboot the HD200 to make it work?

Thanks,

the keyboard works fine for me on the hd200... don't remember if i needed to do something special but i don't think so... the trackball and mouse buttons do not work

You need to reboot the HD200. Pull the plug.
