 Linux Support November 10, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
With the launch of new Yellow Dog Linux 6, the MediaBoard Pro support is sorted out. Pls try out the following :
1. Follow the normal install procedure for YDL6;
2. Launch YDL 6 in KDE mode (supposely also work in other GNOME or E16 mode) with root;
3. Issue command
#hidd --server -n
4. Turn on / reset the keyboard, and wait for a few seconds, the screen will appear something like this :
hidd [xxxx]: Rejected connection from unknown device AA;BB:CCD:EE:FF
5. Press ctrl-c to close hidd and write
#hidd -connect AA:BB:CCD:EE:FF
6. Issue command to verify the keyboard connection
#hidd --search
Now, the MediaBoard keyboard shall work remotely even after the YDL6 is restarted / rebooted. Have Fun !!
A massive improvement over the MediaBoard! October 30, 2007

Mine's on the way...
First of all, who gives a f*ck about Linux?
The MediaBoard Pro is a massive improvement over the original MediaBoard (which I also own), and it's the only Official keyboard out for the PS3! Designed specifically for the PS3, it's shiny black - like the PS3 itself, it's Bluetooth, and the "quick media keys" (inc. X, Square, Triangle and O) make Web browsing easier and provide instant access to the XMB, movie menus and more, etc...
A MUST BUY, if you own a PS3!
 Good keyboard for PS3 as well as other Bluetooth PC/laptops January 2, 2008
21 out of 21 found this review helpful
Well, this is a good Bluetooth keyboard designed for your PS3 but also works pretty ok with a Bluetooth enabled laptop/pc etc. I often connect my Vaio laptop to the TV to watch online channels hence I needed one to be able to use it from my sofa, and as I also have a PS3, bought this one from the US on my way back to London. It works ok with my laptop as well as the PS3 hence no problems there. Response time is good however sometimes you need to wait a few seconds for the keyboard to re-establish the connection if you keep it on but don't use for a long time. On the other hand I have never experienced a serious problem with its connection either with the laptop or PS3. This is an important point as I have had issues with some other Bluetooth keyboards I have tried before buying this one. Especially heard a few bitter stories about other Bluetooth keyboards that wont connect with PS3. Good improvement from the previous version is that you don't need a dongle hence save a USB plug for other accessories. When you turn it on it connects automatically to the latest gadget you have used it with which is also nice and non-problematic. It is pretty stylish as well and fits well with the PS3 though could have been a bit smaller for living room use in my view. A bit chunky if you are going to use it while lying down in your sofa. Keys are well sized (no Windows or PS key though) and touchpad works also ok. Overall a good keyboard and most importantly Bluetooth connection works well with different gadgets.
To be frank, you need to ask yourself the question if you really need a keyboard only for the PS3 (assuming you are using it just for gaming, media and internet, i.e. no Linux etc). For messaging and internet a thumbpad (which I also own. see my review if you are considering one) might be ok, hence, have a look at it as well. Dont forget, this keyboard lacks some crucial specs for surfing with PS3 (like zooming) hence a thumbpad add-on to your controller might be a better idea. But if you are also going to use it with another laptop/pc, it is a great and stylish keyboard that wont dissappoint you at all apart maybe from its size.
Overall a very good PS3 accessory July 22, 2008
I decided to invest in a keyboard for my PS3 to speed internet surfing. While this keyboard is not the highest quality (in terms of plastic quality, keyboard key depression feel etc) overall it is perfectly acceptable. The integrated touchpad mouse operates well (although it would have been better if was just a bit bigger). The Bluetooth functionality is excellent - it pairs with PS3 quickly and has operated flawlessly so far. I have also paired the keyboard with my Sony Vaio Bluetooth laptop and it works perfectly with this as well. Overall a useful Bluetooth accessory for PS3 or any Bluetooth enabled laptop which does exactly what it says on the tin! I bought it from gameseek_uk as they were the cheapest new price and their service was excellent. Logitech Cordless Mediaboard pro (Bluetooth) (PS3)
Great PS3 gadget... Plus works fine on XP, Mac & Linux!!! December 27, 2008
A nice piece of kit for the price. I followed the simple instructions included in the box and in less than a minute the keyboard was paired to the PS3. The keyboard looks the part in gloss black and suits the PS3, but it's construction does feel a little flimsy although the action on the keys feels fine. Mouse pad works well but could do with being a little larger and as yet, I've not found L1 L2 L3 R1 R2 R3 compatable keys so have the controller to hand is adviseable when surfing.
As a plus, I have also paired with XP, Mac and Linux machines with no problems what so ever...
Overall this is a great product at a good price and I would recomend to any PS3 owner who is thinking about getting a bluetooth keyboard
