I have looked far and wide for definitive answers on this and got lots of opinions and summising..... so here are some definitive answers for anyone looking for a wireless keyboard for your PS3.......

1. Any wireless keyboard with its own usb dongle will work with the ps3, as they replicate the input of a standard usb keyboard

2. Apple wireless keyboards will NOT work with ps3. The ps3 will find the keyboard but will error when trying to pair

3. Logitech dinovo WILL work with ps3 with or WITHOUT usb cradle / dongle

4. And finaly, and the best, microsoft entertainment desktop 7000 (link) - keyboard works great with p3 onboard bluetooth.

took a gamble on this today, and it works great - it even includes a 4 way mouse cursor which works perfectly with xmb and menus - mouse keys and cursor 'ok' key work as X key and esc key works as O key, so moving through menus is simple and quick

and it is probably the best looking keyboard out there..........

and it is half the price of the logitech! (at least here in UK..............)

Hope this info helps out some of you guys!

Ouch, thats a little expensive for a keyboard and mouse :S

I bought my friends wireless microsoftKB/M (looks more or less the same)for £10 and it works great :D

each to there own - i wasnt saying that cheaper versions wont work.

but if you want something that includes a mousepad or some kind of cursor controller and something slim and light that looks good in the middle of the lounge, and works the best, then you got to pay a little more..........

I use a Gyration keyboard and mouse. Works perfectly. I went with them because they have far better range than most brands, but not cheap. Luckily I got mine on special.
