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?
Dell Streak is lucky to happily work with bluetooth keyboards (see on Engadget). For the Nexus One, I don't think this will work out of the box. The best solution I found so far is BlueInput.
Can you recommend portable keyboards and keyboard drivers? The Apple keyboard isn't so portable and affordable while BlueInput is sort of expensive.
So you mean to say that the Apple Keyboard actually works with the N1 with the BlueInput driver?
Yep http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629416&highlight=apple+keyboard
Just to point out that that thread (that I started) is about using an apple keyboard with the "hidd" binary, not "blueinput" which I bought and found unuseable.
I'm currently using a cm6 daily and find the built-in BT-HID support to be fantastic.
...on everything except the apple keyboard (but I already knew that the apple keyboards aren't quite straight HID)
I'm currently using a slightly hacked up one of these:

If I were you I'd just wait for the release of cm6, it looks pretty schweet.

CM6 has Bluetooth HID keyboard support?? Coolness!
What keyboards would you recommend for that?

With the back shaved down as it's a bit thicker then it needs to be.

I am looking to buy a portable keyboard for on-the-go office document editing. This is something that is important to me, and I would rather purchase the correct peripherals then try to find a workaround for my HID keyboard.
What out of the box keyboard will "just work" with the N1? If anyone knows of a specific model that would be great. Or some guidelines. Will the SSD palm type keyboards work out of the box?
Just for those who are interested in BT keyboards but don't follow CM's bugtracker. CM6-RC2 fixes the problem with apple bluetooth keyboards. I now find myself popping it out and using my N1 to edit documents on the train (that I sync using dropbox)
It is _awsome_

You meant, you're using the Apple keyboard, right?
wildmonk's new kernel (in the dev subforum) also has the fix for using Apple bluetooth devices. haven't had the chance to try out a bluetooth keyboard, but thinking it's all the excuse I need to buy one.
I'm looking into purchasing the Logitech DiNovo Mini Bluetooth HTPC keyboard+mouse, in a couple weeks.
Will report into this thread as soon as they arrive with hopefully a demo video to go with it.

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.

Hello, everyone
Does anyone know or have some suggestions how to install Android on N97?
Yes, I was wondering that too. I myself have a jailbroken iPhone, but my friend has a Nokia N97 and he's sick of it. I was hoping I'd be able to put Android on it somehow.
haha.. it's unreal ... Nokia with symban are too old !!!!
But hardware of n97 supports teh Android ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Well actually the Nokia N97 has an ARM 11 cpu @ 434MHz, which is not that bad at all. It also has 128MBytes of RAM, and that's a hardware configuration I've seen on tablets running android perfectly. Combine that with the qwerty keyboard and bam - you got yourself a nice phone... running symbian though.. pitty. I think that it would be way cool if I could put android on it - my company gave one of those to me just yesterday and I am already sick of the software on it...
I am looking to do some windows 8 development, as you may know they ethos is "touch first".
There is a built in simulator that i can use in Visual Studio but i would prefer to use some real hardware.
I currently own a Galaxy note, and was wondering if could use that as an input device.
Preferably i would like to be able to clone my desktop to my note and be able to control it there via multitouch.
If this is not possible, i would settle for the ability to simply use it as a multitouch tablet.
Anyone know how i could go about this?
Thanks,
Xyis
Well the closest app that does what you are looking for is:
Win8 Metro TestBed from Splashtop
it's a little pricy but it works pretty well.
Maybe it can help you to learn how it works.
Hope you develop a free alternative xD

Sounds like just what i was after and i dont mind the price too much, but my device is not supported and it sounds like it currently runs quite slow. Will definitely keep my eye on it though.
Thanks for the suggestion.
