There’s my review of this keyboard available at
http://disabilitynow.org.uk/article/rivo-control-palm-pocket
It doesn’t go into detail about the operation of the RiVO but it does give a
pretty good overview I think. I believe Steve Nutt is the UK distributor but
there’s a link to the Korean company’s website in the article.

It's perhaps slightly bigger than a credit card, but doesn't feel flimsy in any
way.
It uses two methods to input text, one of which is the old-style ABC method you
found on most of the Nokia phones.
It has 4 buttons either side of the numberpad, and these are for producing
various commands. The left side are for L keys and the right are four R keys.
So, for example, L1+R1 would start/stop music playing. Get the idea? This is
why there's quite a learning curve.
It's not as fast as a QWERTY, really, but very portable.
Hope this helps.

I also have recently started to use the RiVO and think it's good, though
there's a bit of a learning curve which won't be for everyone.
The keys are also fairly flat (if you have touch difficulties) and it's a bit
more expensive than most of the others.
If you want real portability, however, and you feel like the learning challenge
then it's worth a good look!

Hi Scott. I use two keyboards, the Apple keyboard and the Rivo keyboard. The
Apple keyboard is great and easy to use but the Rivo keyboard is even greater .
It's very small, totally portable and very easy to use once you understand it
thoroughly. If you wish to know more about them e-mail a phone number to me and
I will ring you and explain all about them. Regards Mike Hearn.Sent from my

Apologies for the cross list posting, just trying to get as much advice as

All suggestions/ info much appreciated,
Thanks to all in advance,
