auto words is ok but sometimes it doesn't guess your word until you've almost finished typing it, especially with some smaller words.

Now you know why I dont say much while playing. The system delays when going from game to chat. I need a keyboard. Better yet....I'll get my microphone working so I can sing to you all while we play ;0)

But in all seriousness its a pain to type using the ps3 controller. I'm going to have to pony up and buy a usb keyboard.

don't most PCs come with compatible keyboards (even if they are wireless)?
So unless you're using a labtop, just use the keyboard from your comp.

most desktop computers don't have usb keyboards. You have to plug them in the other thingies (not sure what they're called) so they don't work on the PS3.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but oddly enough I believe they are called ps/2 ports.

You are correct....ps/2 ports...and newer keyboards come usb also. I have a mini that should work perfect.......as soon as I get a long extension chord.

OK. I really need to find an inexpensive usb keyboard. Typing with a controller is a pain. Oh my precious hands.

Search ebay for the mini usb keyboard. I bought one from China under $10 and it came within a week. Very small. I love it!

keep in mind though that if you have larger hands a small keyboard might be uncomfortable or inconvenient, and it might be more worth it to just shell out a few extra bones for a bigger keyboard. I mean, you can probably find normal sized, simple usb keyboards in the $20 range.

True, but for me mini usb keyboard is probably perfect for my hobbit sized hands.

lol, I have pretty average hands but I have trouble with some of the smaller laptops. Whatever works for you though.
