    Why can't I find a WHITE keyboard any more !!!


    Hi there

    It seems that these days external keyboards only come in BLACK with Silver letters on the keys.

    I prefer the old WHITE / CREAM ones with BLACK letters on the keys. I've resuscitated two old keyboards with the PS2 round connector --fortunately I still have the PS2--->USB connectors so the keyboards work. I've also got the USB==>USB wireless adapter so I can still use these WIRELESSLY (except for the USB-->to the wireless transmitter) but good enough so the keyboard is effectively a Wireless one.

    I find the white keyboards much easier to use if I have to LOOK at the keys -- especially if I'm using different language keyboards.

    Just a gripe - but I'm surprised all the external keyboards I see are always BLACK ones.

    Cheers
    jimbo

  2. Where is the White Charging Case for the Lumia 1020?

    I asked the company I bought my Lumia 1020 from what had happened to the white charging cover. They said Nokia aren't producing them any more, but they couldn't find out why.



    Seems ridiculous to make a phone in one colour but then not make (or rather, stop making) the charging cover for it.



    Even more ridiculous when you consider they're still making and selling the white charging plate and white camera grip!

    I'm sure this isn't the first time this has been asked; how can I protect the characters on my black keyboard, with white characters? I can't even find a keyboard with black characters. And keyboard plastic covers (which I hate) are almost impossible to
    find for your specific keyboard, as they are so "individual" in the way their made.

    And there is almost no way to meet the criteria of the community discussion...

    And to think that once, long time ago I painted my KB and case black and everybody was saying it's stupid and would never catch up.
