Apparantly, by using Google and searching, your PPC can not use either plug in keyboard (and getting the G750, which is the best plug in keyboard of the two, with software for the US is a chore and takes some searching, but can be done.) The Fellowes, with it's need to shift to use certain NORMAL keys, is a royal PITA to try and use. What they were thinking of when they designed that piece of junk is beyond me. For a touch typist, impossible to switch over and learn! Not tried the Targus, as I got the G750 for my PDA's .. which are listed on the compatability list.
From what I saw in the available acessories for your model, there isn't even a thumbpad available.
External keyboard COULD be done using an IR keyboard since it is so equipped. But TRY before you buy.
As to getting on line. Nowhere in the specifications do I see any reference to 802.11x capabilities, so doubt it.
The solution for that is an SDIO card with wi-fi (available on eBay sometimes) .. but check the brand name reviews for reliability and ease of install. IF you can get it to work properly, that would be your answer.
Even then, you will have to replace the IE browser in 2002 (using Active Synch) with the only browser available (hence, you have to PAY FOR IT) .. that being Opera Mobile. That is because IE in 2002 is text based (WEP) only, no HTML, so no link navigation once a site page loads. Means you can't SIGN IN on the page once you get there.

Nix wifi via the SD slot as the h1910 does not support SDIO, only standard SD (i.e. memory cards but not peripherals). HP may have made a specialized SD wifi card (you would need to check their web site), but a third-party SD wifi card won't work since they require SDIO support.
You might want to look for the Stowaway IR Keyboard from iGo. It uses the IR port rather than the bottom connector so it doesn't give you the added benefit of charging your PDA while on the keyboard. But the drivers should work fine with your device.
