Release Notes
Keyboard compatibility
|
The Universal Wireless Keyboard driver (Keyboard.prc) is not compatible with any
previous Palm keyboard products. This is important because previous keyboard drivers also
may have been named Keyboard.prc. The correct drivers for the Universal Wireless
Keyboard look like the icons to the right.

|
These drivers should only be used in conjunction with the Universal Wireless Keyboard
(3169WW and 3169WWZ). If you are using any other Palm or palmOne branded keyboard, use
the driver supplied on the CD.
Compatibility with previous keyboard drivers
If you have previously installed the driver for a different keyboard, you may
see these issues when you install the Universal Wireless Keyboard driver:
- Universal Wireless Keyboard driver overwrites the existing keyboard driver
(keyboard.prc)
- Abnormal behavior when using any external keyboard
If you have ever used a keyboard from Palm other than the Universal Wireless Keyboard,
and you have installed the driver for the Universal Wireless Keyboard, your device will
only work with the Universal Wireless Keyboard. If you want to go back to using the
previous keyboard, you will need to remove the Universal Wireless Keyboard driver
(keyboard.prc) and reinstall the proper driver for use with the other keyboard. You can
use the driver supplied on the CD.
