I'm thinking of buying a bluetooth keyboard for my p910i.I found this page that has some really good deals.

Which one do you think i should buy?All of them realy really cool.Handy and portable.They even have a laser one,that displays a laser keyboard.So what do you think?
Also there's one with mouse support.How could the mouse be used on the phone though?

I use the Think Outside Bluetooth keyboard (www.thinkoutside.com). It works for me, despite a couple of quirks, such as hogging BT so's you can't use a BT headset at the same time.
But it's stable, and the latest version of Documents To Go has specific support for it, so it's great for editing large docs.

What's bt hogging?I need the option to use other bt devices at once.
Also what special option does documents to go have?

What I meant by 'hogging' is that the keyboard's BT software will not allow the use of another BT device with the phone at the same time as the keyboard (even though theoretically it *should* be possible). It's not possible to pair a BT headset with the phone, for instance, whilst the Think Outside keyboard is in use. So this keyboard probably isn't for you!
The support Docs To Go has means that keys such as Page Up/Down, Home, End, etc, work as they should do. Many other apps for the P910 simply ignore these keys.

Isn't there anything to be done about the headset problem?Cause i really seem to like this one.
Do you have the keyb-only or the keyb+mouse?How could the mouse be used on the uiq though?
I'm between this one and the black one from the link i gave!Also the laser seems kinda kinky,but will it work correctly?

Well, a fix would certainly be welcome, but I've had no joy. I mailed the Think Outside support people, but all they could say was, in effect, "Tough titty!"

I have just the keyboard. I wasn't aware of the with-mouse version, but if it works, I could see that being really handy.

Well i asked for the mouse cause i'm not sure if it will work on uiq,it may be supported on palm/ppc only.
Anyway i will aks on the store that sells that and i will inform you if you're interested.

Lol -- no, they didn't really say that! But what they meant was they didn't care enough to want to spend any time trying to fix it.
Yes, I would be interested to hear about the mouse version. There is, incidentally, a support forum at
www.thinkoutside.com that should be able to answer questions about it.

Just checked
www.thinkoutside.com -- and unfortunately, the compatability chart for their BT mouse shows that it WON'T work with Symbian UIQ

Well that's sad,if they added compatibillty and fixed the issue of bt availability for other devices,i would buy it,but since they do not seem to care enough then screw them,there i said it!
