Hi guys,

Does anyone know of a way that I can get my Remote Keyboard for MCE 2005 to
work properly within MCE on the XBox 360?

The controller is fine for games, of course, but when it comes to inputting
information within MCE (searches / MSN Messenger) on the extender, I'd like
to be able to type properly...

The media buttons work, but the QWERTY keys don't... Any ideas?! Is a driver
being worked on for this?

Cheers

Dan.

Have you tried plugging in a USB keyboard directly into the 360?

No, I've not tried that. I'm aware that a regular USB keyboard would work
with the X360, but it's the Infra Red Media CEnter keyboard (Which presumably
people would purchace for 20' living room use) that doesn't work... Is an
update possible for the 360? Or will plugging in my USB IR reciever work?
