Since the RS-232 port on the 50g has power (6v?), could an external
keyboard be hooked up to it?

I've been looking at using a palm keyboard for this, but without having
a 50g, I don't see me doing this real soon.

Serial keyboards for Palms have been adapted to other hardware with
serial ports. Take a look at this page:
http://rallypilot.sourceforge.net/bb/
specifically the keyberry software. If you download it, and take a
look at the souce code you can see that he's got several palm keyboards
working on a blackberry without a whole lot of code. And he has
figured out a decent wiring interface which might be adaptable to the
50G. I'd think hpgcc would be required to do the serial port stuff,
but I really have no idea. Anyway, this might provide a starting point
for someone looking to take on a project like this.
