"First folding bluetooth keyboard I've ever owned or used"
Pros: great size/weight, builtin phone stand
Cons: price, and setup was a bit silly...read on
Summary: This has been a great first keyboard for me. I use it with a nokia n73 and it works flawlessly. My biggest gripe came when trying to install the drivers for the keyboard onto the phone. The n73 (phone) supports miniSD and the card you recieve with the keyboard drivers is regular SD or so. Long story short I went onto their website, downloaded the driver, emailed it to myself and downloaded the attachement from my email (on the phone) and it worked fine. I tried to actually browse the same pages with the phone and download the drivers but that didnt work for some reason.
The size of the keyboard is fantastic though, I can throw it in my jacket pocket and not have to deal with my laptop when I go to work if I want to travel light. Its really a wonderful alternative to lugging around a computer every day.
The keys are spaced a bit differently than a regular keyboard so you'll probably have to learn where some of them have moved too (nothing too difficult), and the keyboard doesnt lock out once its open, so it needs to be on a flat surface when using it (optimally).
The bluetooth is quick to connect with my phone, and really I dont have any complaints about it. I love the size and useablity of it.
Also, there is no row of number keys, they can be accessed though by using the function button...some convenience is sacrifice through functionality here but it hasn't been a big deal to me.
Price is a bit high on these right now, I would recommend waiting a few months to get one unless you really have to own it. I paid $120US for mine from ebay I think and it shipped fairly fast.
