Recommended Wireless Keyboard for use with CoinOPS

Anyone who enjoys emulating 8/16 bit computer games on their xbox will appreciate having a wireless usb keyboard.

This Anker® Ultra Slim 2.4G Wireless Compact Keyboard currently available on Amazon UK for £16



Improvements over previously tested wireless keyboards

- the keys are much better - there's less travel, they feel more responsive, and make less noise.
- the keyboard feels about half the weight of the Xenta
- it has an on/off switch and battery indicator (the xenta turned itself off after a period of non-use so you could drain the battery easily by leaving a cushion or something on it that left a key pushed down)

The usb receiver that comes with the keyboard plugs into the xbox to usb adapter - insert 2 AAA batteries in the keyboard, turn the keyboard on and you're good to go.

USB Adapters


I've tested this fully with my xbox using an xbox to usb adapter.  You can get these direct from Pipmick on ebay, or from China for less cost but with a ~28 day wait for delivery.
