Power users and long time AAS diehards, look away now. For everyone else, here's a walk through of how to get your Nokia N95 (or any other S60 or UIQ-based smartphone) hooked up to a Bluetooth wireless keyboard. Ever wanted to enter text at 60 words per minute on your smartphone - well, now you can!
Read on in the full article.
I still rather a full QWERTY device such as E61, E70 or E90.
er...why did you not use the pull-out stand?
I was wondering that too 😊

...or the best of both worlds: Nokia E90 with internal keyboard when on the move and with external BT-keyboard in meetings writing long notes?

When I'm in meetings I usually use my laptop, since I'm already in the office. How about this: you're in a hotel with a N93 connected to the TV and writing comments on the BT keyboard while surfing the net using hotel's free hotspot? Pretty nice, hm?
Yes finally I have discovered Steve's bluetooth code! (evil laugh) Now i can hack into his phone by typing 00 whenever i want mwa ha ha.
Seriously though are there other things the keyboard makes easier? say playing games or surfing the web?
I was wondering what is the material makeup of the keyboard? Is it hard plastic such as in laptops or something else?
Personally, I would rather use a dedicated QWERTY keyboard such as E90. The reason is simple, I don't want to carry my N95 and the bluetooth keyboard and also the screen on the N95 is too small (240x320) to view and edit documents.
to each their own, and nobody's is better than the other's...
let us celebrate both devices, each for its own merits.
Well, if using a bluetooth keyboard wasn't enough, how about a bluetooth mouse!!!
I hope this makes an interesting read: http://vaibhavsharma.wordpress.com/2007/06/01/bluetooth-mouse-on-a-smartphone/
It would look kinda weird to have your device in one hand and the bluetooth mouse on the other, don't you think?
If you're going to carry around a folding keyboard, get a proper one - the Sierra Stowaway is far superior and has the same size keys and key positions as a desktop keyboard. The Nokia one is useful, but access to numbers and symbols is a pain, and it's not full size so is no use for touch typing.
I've got one of the iGo keyboards as well. I'm a long term ThinkOutside fan from the days of my Palm.
I get a lot of sarky comments about being geeky, but last week kept on top of my work emails whilst jumping between meetings all day with just my N80 and my keyboard.
I've found it handy for laptop surfing too (the one I have locks on your lap).
How to disassemble the device stand from the keyboard?
In manual is stated that it is possible but they dont say how 😞
PS: He, he, he! I've got it! I was just to afraid to damage my new toy by applying to much force 😊
Just pull it out and you have stand not connected to your keyboard.
