I know you can use a mouse on the Transformer Prime, I just don't know about a keyboard
Creator Anton Olsen on June 6, 2012
BeetFarmer,
The Makey Makey looks like a regular USB keyboard to the computer. I don't know of any tablets that support USB devices like that, but if they do it will work.

Jay,
Thanks for posting my daughter's minecraft video. I'll have a post up about it on GeekDad in on Thursday.
Creator Jesse Lord on June 5, 2012
BeetFarmer, since its ardeno all you would need is the drivers so, technically, there is no reason it won't work if the drivers get programmed.
Creator beetfarmer on June 5, 2012
Question: Will the makey makey work with android tablets that have usb ports? Please say yes
Creator AClockworkApple on June 5, 2012
Does this mean that the winners have already been picked?

"What is up with that awesome pixelated sword?!?"
The sword is a replica of the sword found in the game Minecraft. They sell pixel pickaxes as well.
