Vortex Gear KBTalking RACE keyboard on iPad Air
« on: Wed, 08 April 2015, 12:23:49 »
Hello guys,


Just wanted to let you know that this works, I am typing this message on the RACE via the iPad using the Camera Connectivity kit which is basically an Lightning to USB adapter.

I've read that Poker's draw too much current and need an additional USB hub, the RACE works out of the box, even with the back lighting enabled.

I used my Poker X with my wife's iPad with the same connection kit
I'm back.

Is the Poker X a older version?

pokerx works fine, the 2 will not.

Basically if its backlit = maybe
if its programmable = deff not.
