    Depends on how much you send messages to people on your friends list. I'd say if you send a lot of messages then it is worth it.

    Another option might be the bluetooth Logitech Cordless MediaBoard Pro which gets good reviews:

    I have one of these, got it a few months ago.

    It is a very nice piece of kit, works perfectly. It clips onto an official PS3 controller and doesn't hinder any of the buttons, including the shoulder buttons.

    I just leave it on my controller so if I get a message during a game, I don't need to start hunting for a wireless keyboard to reply. It is also light enough that it doesn't really make the controller much heavier, meaning you don't notice any difference when playing.

    It can also be used as a touchpad to control the cursor on the Internet browser. Very handy.

    I have it and its really good i didnt send a massive amount of messages before but thats because its so slow. But after i got this i use the text chat thing a lot more and send good long messages.

    Well worth it allthough i never attach it to the controller i think it gets in the way i just use it seperatly ( the controller serves no funtion whatsoever)
