    I wonder if that keyboard is via a wired interface only. Because something like that would be perfect for a Pico W or ESP32 so that it works detatched. I think this would be great on a desk with a kickstand and the keyboard detatched. There might even be some pins leftover for a “wireless” GPIO header on the keyboard, which would be really cool if you were using the included VESA mount for the tablet

      That keyboard looks very similar to various “mini keyboards” on Amazon. I searched for “pc remote keyboard trackpad” and found a couple that are pretty close.

      I have had a couple. Don’t expect to type out a novel on it. Between the tiny layout, the straight rows, and the mushy matrix, they are barely good enough for searching for movie titles on Kodi. I’d rather use a phone touchscreen keyboard.
