Is there a compatable keyboard for this TV? I would use the internet feature more if there were an easier interface.

At this time, LG does not produce or have a specific compatible wireless keyboard for any of their TVs. Logitec makes wireless keyboards, and we have found that they work well with Samsung, but neither Logitec or us can promise 100% functionality

My apologies for not answering this question before but I don't monitor this box anymore (tired of spam).I don't have no idea of the behavior of this keyboard (or any other) with a SmartTV, my only experience has been with HTPC's.

This TV Box supports key-board esp wireless keyboards (2.4G)based on wifi and USB key boards. If you want to use wireless keyboards, you need download Google TV remote control from Google app store and then set it up. Thanks!

No there is not a working browser! I'm hoping for a future update with a new app from Vizio... You can't navigate to any web pages unless taken there by way of the pre-installed apps. This was an oversight on my part as that is something I expected but didn't ask the question. Otherwise, this TV is nice for a bedroom with no issues to date.

Not Sure What That Is, But I Will Day It Had One The Best Pictures I've Seen. I Wanted An Awesome Picture & It Delivers. Only Con About This TV Is That ItIs A Smart TV With A Good Internet Setup, But There Is Not A Keyboard U Can Even Buy For I, So You Have To Use The Remote Which Takes Forever To Type With. Its Kinda Stupid To Have An Internet Ready TV Without At Least Some Type Of Keyboard.

I think this is just for the internet tv's. Vizio should have a list of compatible sets though.

Not specifically. Go to the website for details. Last I checked, some basic keyboard features may work, but others will not. No guarantees.

C. McCabe,We can't recommend a specific model or brand, but other users here have noted that Wireless Microsoft keyboards, or wired HID-compatible USB keyboards will typically work well with Samsung televisions.This model does not have Bluetooth for keyboard connectivity, so a keyboard that supports wireless or a wired USB connection is recommended.Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

No keyboard is required since the TV has a virtual keyboard for necessary inputs. Using your hand you can type in your inputs fairly easily. Otherwise you'll need to use the remote for keyboard input. There are USB ports, but I'm unaware if these support external keyboards, wired or wireless.

I have a 46" 6580 series Samsung Smart TV - made is July 2012. I hve used the Samsung 1500 Keyboard with this TV and it is supposed to work with higher models (7000-8000-9000 etc). When I was shopping for a TV Costco had the 6500 series TV in their store but this was not a"smart" TV. So I went with the 6580. I did try a Logitech A400 Keyboard but found out that the Logitech would not connect as i could not install the software. I may be wrong but I believe that the Samsung TV has an Android operating system so it needs to connect by a Bluetooth connection. The Samsung 1500 Keyboard links up easily with the 6580 TV and makes using the Apps a whole lot easier. Using the remote to enter data in to the web browser, Skype, Pandora etc too painful. Whether it will work with the straight 6500 or 5000 series or even a 2011 model TV is doubtful.

It has a full web browser. You can surf web. Do not need laptop or additional keyboard. Web browser does support HTML video element and either the H 264 video codec or the WebM format which includes Google Chrome, Firefox... It is an amazing smart Television. I am very happy with my purchase.

I don't know, Remy. Does the TV have USB port? Is it keyboard interactive? What I do is plug the receiver into my Acer net book, connect that to my TV via HDMI, and watch You Tube and Netflix on the big screen.

Is there an Ethernet connection on this tv? I have seen conflicting reports on this.Thanks,Jer

Doubt it. If the keyboard connects via bluetooth, then no. This is the model before Samsung came out with the "Smart TV" line. It uses an archaic internet setup with yahoo widgets.

yes you will be able to do that. The browser isnt actually half bad for a built in tv web browser. That being said it is still browsing the internet without a dedicated keyboard and the magic remote. Meaning you will have to point at each and every letter when you type in the web page. A little annoying and time consuming but like I said one of the better built in tv browsers.

No I have not tried a keyboard on the tv yet too many other thing to do first. I have not had any problems with either remote just a learning and getting used to. The more I use them the easier it get.
