Ha ha first attempt just using a lighter, some wire snips and some small screw drivers. I just heated up the tiny screw driver and drove it through the case into the little black base. I totally got the wrong angle. Oh well I have plenty of more cases and I'm glad I tried it out on a color I didn't like. Tomorrow I'll circular file that black base. The N9 is so top heavy like this it would be easy to drop it forward and I don't like this keyboard performance. Keys are not registering and keys are double and triple registering. Too much babysitting just to get something typed out and the whole thing is cheap plastic. Love the keyboard size and layout and button feel though, it's huge and a function button on both sides.
Verdict I'll try the slider keyboard at the start of this thread or maybe another slider but if it performs like this constantly missing keys and double and triple registering keys to the point of babysitting like this one that will be my last try. This one not only makes the N9 a brick/sandwich but there is a black blob sticking out of the top which is where it pivots. It looks like it's parasiting the N9. Oh well, too bad we can't have a huge keyboard like this but super thin and hardwired in and slides out. It was too good to be true. I feel, well.....istupid.

Has anyone tried the NUU K2-1 MiniKey? It looks like an interesting alternative to the Boxwave keyboard buddy case.
I'd like to try a mod too. However, I have absolutely no idea of which one would be the best, in terms of size, keyboard quality and compatibility. Any reviews (on either one of these keyboards)?

I LIE! It should work, there's screws and stuff on the MiniKey
Im tempted to just buy it and try!EDIT: Went and bought one, will post pictures when finished and will let you know how it works! Don't have the hard case yet, so going to use the standard rubber one initially.

All this thinking have made me do something about this problem. A little "case-mod" can do miracles
I bought a cheap iPhone bluetooth slide-case, and a cheap N9 case on eBay.
I unscrewed the case to get rid of the iPhone case, to just have the bluetooth keyboard with the slider.
Then, I just made holes in the cheap N9-case and screwed the slider on it.
Turn on the device, pair them and the result: N9 with a keyboard!
The only drawback is that there is no Ctrl button. I hope someone can help on this project to add a ctrl key for this bluetooth keyboard. There is a "menu" button which doesn't do anything on the N9... Maybe we can bind this key to act as a Ctrl key?
I made some pictures on how I did this, I'll upload them today to share this idea with everybody.

Edit:
Here are the pictures and the YouTube video:

Picture 1:
The bluetooth keyboard itself in it's original state
Picture 2:
Remove the sticker from the case to get to the screws
Picture 3:
Picture 4:
Unscrew the screws
Picture 5:
Picture 6:
Picture 7:
Makes holes on top of the N9 case and place it on the bluetooth keyboard and screw the screws back
Picture 8:
Place the sticker back on top of the N9 case to prevent scratches on your N9
Picture 9:
Result! (This is an early build, that's why it's not perfectly centered in the middel)

A device as beautifully designed as the n9 deserves better than a iphone hand-me-down (not that I'm knocking your fine efforts). Why not design our own case and use a 3d printer to fabricate it?
Building my own 3d printer is my project for the summer, so I'm holding off doing this just yet, but I thought I'd put the idea out there.
