I got the usb adapter thats lets me use the keybroad for xbox pso. But all it seems to do is type letters fast for chat. Well what is the point of that since we have voice chat?

Is there anyway to set hotkeys so i can use the keybroad to cast spells or use items fast?

TIA

The adaptor was a last minute addition to the US release. Infact, half of the keys wont work properly.

Unless Microsoft has another title planned for keyboard support, I'm tossing it after I'm done with PSO.

Dood, keyBOARD. Not keyBROAD. Although keybroad is pretty dang funny.

Or....

You can hook a USB HDD up to the adaptor, and your XBOX dashboard will recognize it as a memory card, formattr it, and let you copy game saves to it....

Great way to back up your XBOX HDD....and not be restricted to the 500 blocks a standard XBOX mem card has....

Having a 22 month old daughter, the keyboard is a blessing to my teamates and freinds. When she doesn't want to go to bed and/or gets fussy. The mic is muted and the Keyboard is used. I can hear them and I can still communictae. Plus using it for Snail Mail is great.

Keyboard text is instantaneous as well, while voice has a slight delay. Depending on what you're saying it's advantageous to use the KB instead, and you can only use it for PSO at this time (hence why it says 'XBOX PSO E1&2 KB ADAPTER).
If you really don't see the use of it, why did you order it? I think having chat AND the keyboard is great, sometimes I don't really feel like talking, but I can still hear what people say and type responses (I type over 100WPM so it's not too bad), but then when I'm fighting I can still chat so I don't have to drop the controller.

I hate using voice chat since 99% of the time people are acting like total asses! I am not talking about hormonal male teens, but the adults that play.. oh man!
