I'm planning to get a PS3 soon and definately a bt keyboard for online browsing. Is a mouse worth it?

thanx

If you are going to browse? Yes.

Or just get a bt keyboard with a built in touchpad/trackball. There are a few options and they work well.

Getting a keyboard/mouse might be a better combination for gaming though, as at least 1 game will support it (UT3).

I wouldn't get bt for UT3, mostly because of the whole package delivery deal, and if you're on a budget that nicer mouse makes a difference in UT, and usb is significantly cheaper than bt.

This is what I'm getting. Gotta love Logitech...

Yeah I can't wait to shell out that cash... 80 bucks but it looks worth it.

That keyboard is definitely worth every penny. Especially if you use your PS3 for web browsing. The only complaint that I have about it is that it doesn't always register every key that I press if I am typing at my normal pace. So I do have to type a bit slower than normal, but considering the alternative of the on-screen keyboard I can live with that.

I would like a mouse for when I get UT3 as well, but am unsure of what to get thus far. While USB is going to be more responsive BT would be very nice to have as well, just not sure what is available so far for BT mouses.

But if you are simply getting that Logitech keyboard for browsing the web on the PS3 and not playing video games the touch pad that comes built into it works extremely well for me.

I also have that problem about not being able to type fast with the Logitech diNovo Edge BT Keyboard. The thing is though that when I hook it up to my regular computer, it works perfectly and I can type as fast as I want...leading me to believe this is a BT/PS3 issue?

I would wait until they fix the browser. IMO it's pretty worthless right now...

Yeah, I would be buying it just for browsing as I have become quite accustomed to playing shooters with a controller but PJ is correct, the browser needs some definite work done to it before I start fully relying on it instead of my computer...

Just set-up my Logitech BT keyboard last night and did some web browsing. I agree that the browser needs alot of work. Plus, I had a hard time getting the web pages to fill my 47" screen - either too small or I'd zoom in and lose over half the page. I couldn't seem to readily adjust the picture via the PS3 settings. Can anyone provide any advice or help on this?

yes, there is an option for FULL SCREEN, zoom is different, press triangle and then under one of those options at the top is an option for the full screen. sorry im not at my ps3 so i forget what the menus say, but i know its there
