Tablet Accessories

Hey guys,
I recently bought myself a tablet and I think I want to add a keyboard to it. I saw a few models on Loco Gadets, but I don’t know if there are certain specifications when choosing one. They are not expensive, but I thought I should ask first.
Also, do you recommend any other accessories for a tablet?

this seems a lot like spam to me.

to give you the benefit of the doubt. there is not normally any particular need to get any specific tablet. the protocol is standardised. may be worth a google of the name of your tablet (oddly not given in the OP) and keyboard combination to see if anyone has had problems.

The thing is that my tablet is kind of weird. I don't have a mini usb slot like most of the models, just a convertor to a regular usb. I really want a keyboard, but I am not sure if there are any models that require regular usb slots.

Bluetooth is the usual method.

and probably any computer keyboard that has USB, which is all of them.

It hasn't got a Bluetooth incorporated, but I have an external one, which I don't think is a good idea because it's kind of slow.
The computer keyboard seems a better idea. Sorry, but I haven't used one of those for a while and I honestly had no clue that all of them have USB.

Thanks. I think I will try with a computer keyboard.

i have never seen a tablet without bluetooth.

bluetooth might be slow for transferring files. but the data rate for a keyboard is not high.

I'm serious, mine doesn't have one or at least I can't find an application on it. I know it should've been in the menu, right?
