reading comments above, why do PS3 users prefer Apple keyboards?
is it because the sleek sexy styling goes well with the PS3?

i note Sony can announce the clip-on but no mention of price, typical.

If this comes out at sub-£30 it will be a winner. Also true to Sony's Open Platform philosophy you will be able to use this with any bluetooth device like your smart phone or PDA etc. Another feature that catches my eye is the Touch Pad Button that "allows PS3 users to use the entire surface of the keypad as a touch pad" - as weill as being handy during web-browsing I can see this being used as a novel way to control some games as an optional control method.

I have a foldable Bluetooth Keyboard already but it's a pain to use with a controller as you have to put one down to use the other. Yep, it’s the touchpad aspect that I like the sound of.

Though I love my super thin <a href="http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/07/10/15/review_apple_wireless_keyboard_aluminum.html" rel="nofollow">aluminium Apple bluetooth keyboard</a>. The touch pad (like on those walkmans) really sets this out from the crowd. I’ll probbaly end up picking one up.

It'll be good for chat etc - but even more useful given the PS3's web-browsing capability. If the price is reasonable, I'll be getting one! I had something very similar when I had a 360.

I, personally, am sick of trying to type with the Virtual Keyboard, so this is extraordinarily welcomed. This was the best announcement from Sony yesterday.
