I was looking at Dell website and was thinking of getting the Bluetooth Keyboard and I was concern since it's made from Dell.
Do you think that it would work with XDA II?
What would all our Learned friends Menneisyys, Bulldog, Mr Zach, Kramerica2 et al buy or upgrade to.
After using the original Pocket PC and the the Universal I'm at loss of what to get.
Functional like the Universl with the business functionality and keyboard and the decent sized screen All the latest offerings are aimed at a totally different market. What about a HTC P6500?
TV out would also be useful.
Your advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

It´s hard for Uni users to decide what´s next....
I don´t think any model can called a Uni succesor by now, seems like HTC and others forgot about this model.
Yes you can have touch pro with a keyboard and nice but the screen size is terrible! on other side you have the G1 with a promisor OS but very limitated by now; also the HD that I think it´s the best candidate for renew with a very nice screen and quiality and speed, design. Only bad point no keyboard...
Good luck

Yep you are right. Maybe we will have to resort to the HD with a foldaway keyboard. Pity it does not have TV out for Powerpoint presentations! No one seems certain on memory 256 or 1 GIG?
Thanks calli
Hi all,
Does anyone have access to the test .apk that Blueinput released that might let me use/test this with my samsung Galaxy S?>
It doesnt seem that their live .apk on their site will work with every device.
Or maybe there is a better option somewhere that I am not aware of.
Anyone have any luck using other methods to connect a bluetooth keyboard to their Android handsets?
I am rather disapointed that I have been unable to pair my Nokia SU-8W with my Sammy
I am doing the bulk of my mobile typing with my N95 8Gb (paired with su-8w) now that I have sold my HD2.
This is a nuisance as:
a/. the notes application really sucks and doesnt give me much in the way of layout options
b/. the screen is 320 x 240 and just not as nice to read....
Can anyone advise me?
Thanks
XxJPM froyo has given me full bluetooth mouse and keyboard on my galaxy s . This is good rom people.

I'm on the hunt for compatible bluetooth control pads for the samsung galaxy s. I used to have one for my old i900 and worked a treat (can't recall the name of the pad), but had heard wiimote and other bluetooth controllers will not work with new samsung widget devices and htc sense phones.
Does anyone know one which will work as touch screen gaming is a bit poo
Hoping this is not a re-post
Zeemote works, even on 2.1 firmwares, but you have to buy the GamePro drivers. Here is it in action - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8y5Z_Xc7fI
On 2.2 firmwares bluetooth HID profile support is added for BT keyboards/mice, but sadly WiiMotes are still a no-go.
If your old one is a HID profile device it may well work on 2.2 firmwares.
Cheers, shall look into zeemotes. My old unit was the samsung i900 (windows mobile), and i regret selling with the pad as it looks like was compatible with gamepro. Still zeemotes seem pretty cheap so will definitely try these out.
Okay, remembered the one i had with my samsung omnia i900. It was the MSI BGP-100. This would be more ideal for me to have again as of the extra buttons (three seems a bit short on the zeemote), and originally cost me around £10 including delivery. I've noticed that since the time i had it this pad has become discontinued and i can only find a few sellers but they want £90 for it (seriously WTF! ).
So my second question is does anyone know wnywhere that still has stock of the MSI BPG-100 and selling at a reasonable price and will ship to UK or does anyone know of an equivalent that has more than three buttons?

The little Bluetooth keyboards work as game controllers with Froyo, if the game app can remap keys. I've used one with Gameboid. It's not as good as a dedicated gamepad but you get used to it.
@ DotMpeg - Yes that's the MSI pad. If you can find anywhere that sells them at a semi sensible cost and has stock please let me know. Dealextreme along all other sites i have found that still have them listed do not have stock...
@ TheBeano - Sadly not running froyo yet as the UK network providers have not released their versions quite yet (due anytime now), but when they do i'll certainly be looking into these if i still can't get hold of the old MSI pad. Either that or the temptation to debrand will grow

@ hiraj_panosian It looks like an overpriced toy and more to the point what the hell does it have to do with the topic
http://robosavvy.com/store/product_info.php/products_id/503?osCsid=da7f746bd7d9670cb9728607e432e477
not used it though
Excellent find and not a bad price I'll see what i can find out about these and report back anything for other users.
Looks like the RC-100 cannot be used as a phone gamepad. Got the below message direct from manufacturer;
"The RC-100 is not a Zeemote. The RC-100 is a remote control that works over the Zigbee wireless protocol (not Bluetooth) designed to work with our line of Bioloid Humanoid Robots.
It was not designed to work with cellular phones and therefore I believe it will not serve your purpose of using it with your phone or pad."
The hunt continues...
Hunt will be over soon with CM 6.1 coming! Then we can just use our Datel Retro Wireless controllers and WiiMotes...
CM 6.1? Sounds promosing, tell me more please
I didn't read the thread properly, sorry for that. I really like the way you can wear it as a watch. It has a real screen in comparison with other bluetooth watches...

Cyanogenmod ROM 6.1, it will have a bluetooth implementation that works with WiiMotes etc.
@ hiraj_panosian - no problem. It looks nice but i can't understand why anyone would be that lazy to pull the phone outta their pocket?
@ NZtechfreak - Should have realised that CM was Cyanogen Mod Do You know if they are actually making this as a stable ROM as at present they have done nothing but experimental ones for the i9000.
Its not yet stable, they've made a lot of progress though.
Its a regional rebrand of the softtouch s1
Its an nfc keyboard. Its litte bit squishy but far supperior to any other pocketabke keyboard i have tried so far its split in the middle (Nfc to connect with the device) works like a charm, only wish my note had nfc. this post is one of the first things I have written with this but allready i can type faster then the allready fast on-screen keyboard.
it is missing a dedicated numbers row but all the android specific keys work like a charm. One2touch.no is the website of these guys.
as i live in norway i am quite limited when it comes to the selection of keyboards supporting local characters.
