Sprint PCS keyboard

Picked up a Sprint PCS keyboard (Like this one) in hopes that it *might* work with the universal IrDriver in Obex.
While this looks like a good addon for the Prop, it doesn't send anything that looks like standard IR data.
Has anyone worked with one of these yet, or am I pressing forward into new territory?

    I posted a general IR receiver analyzer some weeks ago. Have a loook what signals it shows. Writing an IR receiver is a snap for the advanced beginner smile.gif

    My guess is that it is using IRDA.

    Good Guess!
    *Sigh* But what is IrDA ......

    Google suggests the insurance regulatory and development authority but more seriously it looks as if IrDA is the physical side of the protocol not the software side.

    Considering you are in control of what the keyboard sends then I think deSilva's sniffer should make it easy to decode.

    Cool keyboard!
