-- Stowaway Keyboard Availability (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=3504)

Anyone know when Handspring will be taking orders for these?

Unless I'm mistaken, the answer is never.

It will be through Targus.

Come visit my homepage.

Actually, Targus will be selling them through the Handspring store. According to a Targus press release, Think Outside was going to ship the stowaway to them at the end of January, then Targus would begin selling them through Handspring and their site. So, It should be in the next couple of weeks...but that's just a guess.

I am SO ready for the folding keyboard! It would really come in handy during meetings. I read that the PalmPilot keyboard would be available at the end of January at Palm Gear and the one for the Visor would come sometime in February via Targus. But I don't think anyone is selling the keyboard yet.

From Brittin Englert at Targus:
We have not started shipping the Stowaway products yet. Your name has been
added to a list that will be updated Mid February.

My bad...

That's what happens when one doesn't read the entire press release:

Targus will distribute the Stowaway keyboard through its 35 worldwide offices and more than 6800 storefronts in the United States, including Comp USA, JC Penney, Office Depot, Office Max, PC Connection, PC Zone, Radio Shack and Staples. Think Outside will begin shipping keyboards to Targus at the end of January 2000, and the keyboards will be initially available via Handspring's Web site. When the Handspring Visor product is launched at retail, the Targus Stowaway is expected to accompany the product at these outlets.
