It's a nice gadget in any CD-i collection but as far as I know the KeyControl is only compatible with the two dutch encyclopedias.

Ofcourse the keyboard was designed for use with the Internet kit, but that doesn't work anymore these days.

Does anyone know of any english CD-i titles that are compatible with the KeyControl?

I only know it works with:
-Philips Media / Standaard Interactieve Encyclopedie (NL)
-Philips Media Medische Encyclopedie (NL)

Can it be used for programming on the 605 and 180 development systems or do you need a professional keyboard?

Actually, they had none at all*. You had to connect a terminal to one of the serial ports (or a PC or Mac or Sun playing one, of course).

*Actually, there exists a "professional" keyboard for CD-i (I have one), and it is supported by all players except possibly the 180, but it speaks the same "K" protocol as the CD-i KeyControl which means that the native OS9 software does not support it at all, you need a CD-i application that supports the special "keyboard" devices.
