Gas,

I saw that thread over at XDA too about the rooting, great it worked but I need to wait and see what happens with my unit im sending back for RMA. Mine keeps locking up, on christmas day it did it about a dozen times, then the next few days once or twice, seems so odd and random.

If it gets replaced and works fine ill be rooting it for sure, want to get adblock installed asap!

Hi Gilvray,

Yes, thats exactly the one that I have on my desk right now. Had no problem with getting it working, simply plug in and it comes live. I guesse since its made to accompany the Scroll tablets, we should expect that.
The keys are a little small but, for me still much easier than trying to bash out shell commands on the on-screen keyboard. For writing a book or something it might get irritating. Few symbols are moved around the layout and few keys are half sized in order to make the mini size , but thats true of any small footprint keyboard really.

Looks good, does the job protecting the unit. There is a spring loaded holder that holds the tablet nicely and a leg on the back so it sits up looking like a micro laptop. The spring is actually quite strong so it holds the tablet tight and you cant shake or slide it out easily at all. Perfect fit to the Evoke, in case you want to use it on another thicker tablet it wont work though, the top catch wont get over the front.

Its fine for the job, but Id treat it carefully since the plastics are very fine underneath the keys. If you were to accidentally squash the usb connector between the tablet and keyboard and wedge it in the glove box you might well have yourself a broken key.
So treated nicely it does the job fine and well.

It works against the Scroll Evoke and also Scroll Pocket that I have. When I need something a bit larger then I had no trouble also with my wireless desktop, standard full size logitech kit , wireless K260 keyboard & M210 mouse combo.
I plug in the logitech usb dongle via the OTG cable and it works with no extra effort.

Keyboard also comes with a micro to mini adapter so you can use it with other devices (like the scroll pocket with its mini usb connector).

Hope it helps

Thanks Gas!

I'll probably get one then! Also going to get a long HDMI to connect it up to my TV for online streaming etc.... all in due course! :)

Could you tell us what adb driver you used please and where you got it from?
I installed the generic driver from PdANet but it's not recognising my device.
