Good keyboard for PS3 as well as other Bluetooth PC/laptops
Well, this is a good Bluetooth keyboard designed for your PS3 but also works pretty ok with a Bluetooth enabled laptop/pc etc. I often connect my Vaio laptop to the TV to watch online channels hence I needed one to be able to use it from my sofa, and as I also have a PS3, bought this one from the US on my way back to London. It works ok with my laptop as well as the PS3 hence no problems there. Response time is good however sometimes you need to wait a few seconds for the keyboard to re-establish the connection if you keep it on but don't use for a long time. On the other hand I have never experienced a serious problem with its connection either with the laptop or PS3. This is an important point as I have had issues with some other Bluetooth keyboards I have tried before buying this one. Especially heard a few bitter stories about other Bluetooth keyboards that wont connect with PS3. Good improvement from the previous version is that you don't need a dongle hence save a USB plug for other accessories. When you turn it on it connects automatically to the latest gadget you have used it with which is also nice and non-problematic. It is pretty stylish as well and fits well with the PS3 though could have been a bit smaller for living room use in my view. A bit chunky if you are going to use it while lying down in your sofa. Keys are well sized (no Windows or PS key though) and touchpad works also ok. Overall a good keyboard and most importantly Bluetooth connection works well with different gadgets.

To be frank, you need to ask yourself the question if you really need a keyboard only for the PS3 (assuming you are using it just for gaming, media and internet, i.e. no Linux etc). For messaging and internet a thumbpad (which I also own. see my review if you are considering one) might be ok, hence, have a look at it as well. Dont forget, this keyboard lacks some crucial specs for surfing with PS3 (like zooming) hence a thumbpad add-on to your controller might be a better idea. But if you are also going to use it with another laptop/pc, it is a great and stylish keyboard that wont dissappoint you at all apart maybe from its size.

Very smart and easy to use!
I bought this to use with my PS3, it has the square, triangle symbols etc.. on the corrisponding keys. It is gloss black with a silver bit, so it matches the PS3 and my TV really well. The set up was quick, only a few seconds. The keys feel good and it seems well built. I also like the laptop style touch pad mouse. For the price it is perfect. But I didnt give it a full 5 stars because I would have liked the R2,L2 and R3,L3 keys on it somewhere (as these are the keys you resize the screen with when browsing). Also it could have been a little more ergonimic, its not really designed to sit on your lap, its more for a desk.

Nice keyboard!
This is a good keyboard, and a nice addition if you have a PS3. I got mine today and it paired straight away without any problems. There are a few points that are a little annoying (points that have also been covered by others), hence the 4 stars instead of 5:

1)There is not PS button
2) There are no L1, L2, L3 or R1, R2, R3 buttons

The lack of the PS button isn't a major issue but it would have been nice. The lack of L and R buttons is a bit more annoying as it means that you have to use another controller to properly control zooming, and to use the back and forward functions in the browser. That said, the fact that the keyboard is bluetooth is really good. Despite the afore mentions issues, I don't doubt that this is the best keyboard for the PS3 and would thuroughly recommend one to anyone who feels they need a keyboard for their PS3.
