At the moment im going to be transmitting the decoded ascii characters over an RF link to another pic which will write them to an LCD screen. I've got the RF part working, so now just need to get the keyboard interface working.

Another project im thinking of doing with this is a device that goes inbetween your keyboard and your pc which will convert the keyboard to DVORAK. A friend of mine wants to have 2 keyboards on his PC - 1 QWERTY and 1 DVORAK, but the keyboard settings in windows are global so you cant have 2 different keyboard layouts.

Thanks for your help mytekcontrols. I'm sure this info will be usefull to a number of ppl on these forums.
