Default USB Keyboards
What's a good USB keyboard for the Wii? Do all of them work or just specific ones?

Logitech is a good, cheap working keyboard that will work with the wii. the connection between the keyboard is allright (sometimes doesnt register some keystrokes if too far away. I have been on the fence to buy a bluetooth keyboard because I hook up my laptop to the big screen tv and hook up wireless mouse/keyboard so I can do homework comfortably (and big screen pc games!) so if youre looking for the best of the best, logitech isnt one of them... theyre decent tho.

They should all work as well as they do on a PC so it's your choice.

Just USB keyboards as far as I know, I should have made that more clear.

I was more confused by Flamin Skull's remarks, but looking back I don't think he was talking about the Wii... Also confused by the fact that the Wii is obviously Bluetooth enabled ('motes) but the same functionality can't extend to keyboards. I suppose it's something to do with interference...?
