Hi all,
   
  I have recently installed a Stowaway Universal Bluetooth Keyboard with my 
Nokia N70. It has nice big keys, although some unusual combinations to achieve 
some characters, eg there is no number row so you have to use the left FN key 
with the top row of qwerty to get numbers. Also there only appears to be an 
american layout driver downloadable from the IGO website available. The only 
real problem I am having is that when I press the Shift key the phone says 
"Talks", because it must activate the Edit key. Therefore the only way to type 
a capital letter is to press the shift once alone and then a second time with 
the letter you require. A bit of a nuicence but I can cope with it. Does anyone 
know of a better solution. Maybe Talks should consider introducing the option 
to change the Talks key to, for example, the Menu key as it is in Series 80.
   
  I would be very interested to hear anybody else's experiences of using 
bluetooth keyboards. I have seen some mention on this list of the Nokia 
keyboards. Are they any good? I bought the Stowaway because it was recommended 
to me as being one of the best.
   
  Adrian.
