Any news on PS3 accessories? - Blu-ray Forum

Matt X · 03-01-2007, 02:50 PM

I did a search first, and didn't find anything relevant, so I still apologize if this is posted elsewhere and I didn't see it...
I was wondering if anyone had info on future accessories for the PS3. Specifically I'd love to see a dedicated, compact bluetooth keyboard w/integrated mouse (touchpad, joystick, whatever) from Sony specifically for the PS3. Anyone get wind of this kind of thing in the pipeline? If not (or it's just as expensive), I understand most/all existing bluetooth keyboards will work, so I'd go w/that instead.
Plus, anyone hear about any cool games/controllers using sixaxis in a new way? (c'mon, who wouldn't want to swing a lightsaber around fighting stormtroopers in HD?)

There have been no annoucements of an official BT keyboard/mouse combo since the PS3 can't interface with them yet.

With all the "March" hype and over exaggeration who knows what we will see.

Nothing from Sony yet unfortunately (HD EyeToy details would be nice) but I noticed this on Amazon UK.

Logitech Cordless Media Keyboard (integrated touchpad)

A sleeker all-black Sony design would be preferable. It'd be more likely to have PS3-specific function keys for the web browser and other XMB functions. I prefer simple keyboards though so I'd hope they don't go OTT with F-Keys.

Yeah a PS3-specific design would be a great idea. That keyboard is being released tomorrow, apparently - wonder if it will be released in the States? I still prefer the brick-and-mortar route.

Logitech Dinovo Edge

Great mouse / keyboard, long battery life, black and silver to match the PS3

Hope the bluetooth keyboard&mouse support goes into the major March firmware update!
