Thank you. I'll get on to it. I can't find the KB's mac address. Scanning for it would really help.

yes it does those "xx"es are just placeholders. every mac address has the same length, twelve bytes. (six pairs)
I wasn't clear. I got that the xx pairs and underscores was a mac-address. but the one for the N900 is in a different form. The _07_ is in the wrong place, which makes sense seeing as it should have been for the KB. That's also why the code I used was only 5 pairs - because I was just giving the pairs to the right of the _07_.

btw, all those commands were single commands split by a backslash ( \ ). using a backslash, you can write a multiline command, by "masking" the linebreak with it.
JoHnY did the same in his post (manually connecting the BT keyboard), he just wrote every command in one line.
Ahh, ok - like how std::cout can be one long line or put << at the start of each new line of code?

When I've got this ironed out, think I need to update the wiki with some pairing instructions. Thanks for your help so far - I'll post back if I have any more troubles, hopefully not though!
