I bought a remote keyboard for my Pace Di4000-N V Box on eBay a few months ago (£0.01 + £4.99 p&p) which works as expected with e-mail and other text based features of the STB but the Search facility uses a different, incompatible interface, an inconsistency that I have raised elsewhere on the forum previously. It strikes me that using separate middle-ware routines for the Search interface wastes precious memory in the box and is annoyingly counter-intuitive as the arrow keys and coloured buttons, for example, don't function as they do normally.
