Well, I picked up what would be an awesome device especialy after my X Box 360 just stopped reconizing all my keyboards:

The X Box 360 messenger kit. Apparently its only for Windows Live Mesenger and other X Box funtions, but when I booted up PSU it doesnt seem to reconize it as a keyboard since it runs through my wireless controler rather than a usb port on the system. Has anyone heard if Microsoft plans to put out a patch or something to to make it work like a regular keyboard during games like PSU?

So I guess Monday's update didn't deal with that issue like a few people thought it would....
That kinda sucks. No word from MS on fixing this. My guess is it really doesn't matter to them.

Read that, particularly Clumsyorchid's posts. A patch is on its way.

Oh goody. I'm sure this will really help improve some communication issues I have experienced while in lobbies with people who are not in my party. Soon the age of the cumbersome on-screen keyboard will be gone!

That day was over when they released the keyboard for the dreamcast XP

You do know you can use a usb keyboard, at least for the 360 version right? Im not sure about the Ps2 (and didja know "PS2" is scensored on the 360 O_o)version but I imagine it must. Now is the software update for PSU or the 360 itself to use the pad as an in game keyboard, I imagine it must be through microsoft.
