"Very happy with it"
Pros: Suitable for Nokia phones, PDA's alike. Battery life.
Cons: Slightly cramped typing. Number keys shared with top key row.
Summary: Nokia's ads don't mention it, but this keyboard works fine with any device that supports the HID profile. As such you can also use it with PDA's, even computers, as long as they do Bluetooth-HID.
Battery life is nothing short of stellar. I've had it for 2 months and didn't even have to change the batteries that shipped with it.
Design matches my Nokia 6260 nicely. Other phones would need to be balanced on the little pull-out thingy which seems cramped to me. For 6260, being a clamshell phone that flips lots of ways, it's always easy to put it in a convenient position.
Typing is adequate.. Not as good as a proper keyboard, but LOADS better compared to T9 texting. I don't like that the number keys are shared with the top key row, meaning you have to switch 'Fn' on to type numbers. This is probably a given because of the size constraints, but I probably would like to trade an extra key row for size.
Overall: I like it a lot!! And it should be usable with many more smartphones and PDA's in the future because it supports the bluetooth HID standard.
