I ordered one too ... the price was right!
The only problem is I checked my order status, and the expected ship date is May 29, 2000!

Hmmm. I doubt you'll be able to set any of the keys to go to flyertalk. Read this: http://www.Rocketboard.com/rbe/blast.../v2/press.html (New Persuasion - A Report on the Meeting of Marketing and the Internet)
(why do you think it's free?)

Like I said in my original post, they said they didn't expect it to ship until May 29, so I'm still not holding my breath waiting ...

I just ordered one this morning and availability is now stated as July 6th. Don't know if this means that the next batch will ship only then, or if all keyboards are delayed until that date.



I know!
