Tracker308 A keyboard is totally unnecessary with any Roku device. If typing in user names and passwords is cumbersome using Roku remote then download the official Roku Remote Control app for iOS or Android. Then you can use your phone to simply type in usernames and passwords
"...I don't mean virtual" should have made it clear that I'm not looking for an app.
The question put forth is to Roku representation with regards to keyboard support. I'm not asking for people's opinions on whether they feel that a keyboard is "totally unnecessary." For those of us that need alternative accessibility options, a formal, physical keyboard is in fact very necessary.

Not having keyboard support is absolutely ridiculous. If I would have known that there is no way for keyboard support I would not have purchased a Roku TV.
Incidentally, good luck using the Roku remote for for painstaking one letter at a time word entries: the up and down arrow key are so close to the centered enter key that its difficult not to press the enter key by mistake when you're searching letters on the onscreen keyboard.
