CA 640H - Mouse and Keyboard

I have a couple of questions about the keyboard and mouse functions of the Cambridge Audio 640H.
  1. The FAQ says that wireless keyboards are not supported. I do not understand this. What is needed in terms of support? Is it simply just not a matter of pluging in a wireless keyboard receiver and letting the hardware do all of the work?
  1. The 640H has a mouse port on the back of it. I've tried pluging in a wired mouse, but it does not seem to do anything. Does anyone know if mouse support is available? Would a wireless mouse fall into the same category as a wireless keyboard?

As always, any help or comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
(apologies for the two number 1's as I can't seem to get a bullet point numbered '2'...

Re: CA 640H - Mouse and Keyboard

Don't know why they say that... I've got a wireless keyboard to PS2 module and it works fine with my 640.

No idea what the mouse port is for - maybe they have plans for it in future - but you don't really need it, keyboard navigation is easy...

Here's what I've found with the latest software...

F1 = play
F2 = pause
F3 = stop
F4 = skip back
F5 = skip forward
F6 & F7 don't seem to do anything
F8 = mute
F9 = open / close CD tray
F10 = now playing
arrow keys = navigation
Enter = OK
Home = main menu
Backspace = back
PageUP, PageDn = obvious really
[ = fast rewind
] = fast forward (these only seem to work on now playing)
Insert = seems to go to sources menu
Pause / Break = seems to go to rescan menu

If you spot any more let me know...
