NatAmi feels like the best solution to the Amiga hobby market.

| Such a cool product.
How are we going to find original Amiga keyboards for this thing? Amigakit should start refurbishing old ones. |

| NatAmi has an Amiga 500 keyboard connector on board, so it's not a problem. |

| It also supports normal PS/2 PC keyboards.
Theoretically also USB keyboards in the future but there is no low-level/early boot access to USB devices yet. Last edited by Channel_Z on 02-Aug-2011 at 10:05 PM.

| Why the old school P2 mouse and keyboard connection, why not just support usb devices?

Why? Because they want to make an Amiga clone of course. So it is compatible with Amiga peripherals. The board also has USB2, in case you missed that.
I find it amusing when people _complain_ about backwards compatibility. Last edited by Channel_Z on 03-Aug-2011 at 11:20 AM.

| Yes indeed, Amigas always used standard PS/2 keyboard and mouse.

The PS/2 connector is compatible with bigbox Amiga keyboards. A4000 keyboards directly, and A2000, A3000, and A4000T keyboards with a PS/2 to DIN adapter. The very same adapter that PC users have used for 25 years or so when connecting different kinds of keyboards. The board also has connectors for the A500 internal keyboard. This leaves the only non-compatible Amiga keyboards the A1200 and A600 internal keyboards and the A1000 keyboard. So I don't really see where you are aiming with your sarcasm.
The 9-pin Atari-standard connectors can connect all Amiga joysticks and mice, as well as Sega, Atari etc. peripherals, just like an Amiga can.
This AND compatibility with modern USB2.0 devices. I do not really see where the problem is?Last edited by Channel_Z on 03-Aug-2011 at 12:29 PM.

I second this request! (and have posted such a request in several different threads on several different Amiga related forum sites in the past 6 months)
We need to have a Natami presence at this year's AmiWest Show.

| Okay. It makes sense. I always thought big box Amigas used some proprietary connector. My mistake.

| I might be buying one, too. Any estimates on prices? I haven't seen prices yet. I wonder if I could get the Natami to fit inside my A1200 desktop case. Natami + Blitz3 = possible Amiga coding addiction part 2. |

Big-box Amiga keyboards use the same connectors as PC keyboards, but IIRC they're wired differently and mixing the two can damage the keyboard or motherboard. So is the Natami's keyboard port wired for PC or Amiga keyboards? |
