The cf52gcmbeam does not have the 12 pin connector. It is a 10 pin connector in the same location.

I have a cf74...And 2 "parts" units. Might be able to make one from the parts. Don't know if they are G's or not. I will look.

Boy, this keyboard is really an improvement on the 52...This ranks up there with the Ublox gps on my CF30 as being most useful mod I have done.
