a keyboard adapter would be great too. thanks
still looking for a keyboard
I'm using Lyra 2 kb adapter in my A1000. Works well with any pc ps2 keyboard. All you have to do is to change plug to RJ-9 (this is standard phone plug).

Of course original kb is much better, but it's not easy to find one in a reasonable price:)
I have four keyboards for the A1000, all good looking, but none work on any A1000 I have. Could they be broken or is the cable bad (I tried two). Is there a way to test the output of the keyboard?
hey, it might be the cable but I dont know. A1000 is new territory for me. I would buy one from you to a reasonable price in order to bring it to work here for my A1000. PM its on its way.
A1000 keyboards are relatively easy to repair and overhaul http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php...a1000+keyboard and http://foederer.info/post/amiga-1000-keyboard-repair.Quote:

Anyway, the point is that 3 of them were fixed by replacing the NE556, not too bad a job if you're handy with a soldering iron.
So the keys have to be on unsoldered to remove them?
well its at least a good feeling to know there exists still some :D ... one day..... one day ...
