I seem to recall that the CDTV keyboard was just a painted A3000 or A4000 keyboard. Since I have neither computer, I can't tell you if that's so or which keyboard (since I forgot), but I'm reasonably sure it was confirmed by other users. The bigger issue may be the non-standard (for A500/A2000s, anyway) connector, which is a mini-DIN of some kind. Check the mail order outlets, especially those that handle CDTV/CD32, such as Computer Answers, Creative Computers, Better Concepts or even Grapevine Group. — Ron Legro / MILWAUKEE WI USA via AUTOPILOT ["Phun, phun, phun on the Infobahn…"]

Ron, I've been told that all the keyboard takes is a PS/2 adapter. These are readily available in the PC world..and cheap. Bill

I have an A3000 and am 99% certain that its NOT the same kind of connector. Thanx for the info I'll try it.
