SharkBoard USB Keyboard

 

While there is currently not a great many PlayStation2 games that support keyboard play, InterAct Accessories SharkBoard is still a viable purchase considering the number of other tasks it makes all the easier and more efficient - basic data and/or cheat code entry, for example (on Keyboard supported games, of course, more of which are becoming available). Basically a generic USB keyboard (it also works on PCs and MACs) with a few custom command keys, a surprising shortcoming of the SharkBoard is its lack of a USB pass-thru (two of which are available on the original iMac USB keyboard, thank-you very much, but none on the SharkBoard) that might accommodate a mouse or other USB peripheral. Considering InterAct themselves make no less than 5 USB devices for PS2 while the PS2 has only 2 USB ports, one can't help but think that InterAct is deliberately skimping on SharkBoard function in an effort to sell more SharkHubs ($45), a 4-port USB splitter for PS2...
