The Gameboy Advance is a unit with great video and audio output capabilities. However, its input capabilities are limited to a few buttons, which may be sufficient for games but insufficient for more serious projects.
To address this, the project proposes adding a keyboard. The Ericsson Chatboard CHA-01, designed for cellphones, offers a compact and affordable solution. Its small size and low cost make it a perfect fit.
You can find more information about the project on the author's website.

Compatibility
This has been tested on a GBA SP, and it works just the way it should.
Changelog
2002/11/18
- The font is now updated to include all multilingual chars. (like ����������...)
- Thanks to BigRedPmp for his work making the font.
2002/20/30
- Minor bugfix, code cleanup, added keyboard detection messages.
2002/10/29
- I've updated the test program, now it handles all keys except the top row function keys. It also features a caps lock feature, use shift+space to toggle caps lock. Using the shift key with any other key will return the symbol printed above the key.
- The multilingual chars (ascii codes above 127) are currently not implemented in the font I use, if anyone have a full ASCII table 8x8 pixel font suitable for GBA then please mail it to me and I'll include it.
2002/10/28
- Due to how the keyboard works you have to push the SMS button and then wait a second before you can type anything.
