This is where I got the information that n800 works with this keyboard:

Note Marc Orchant's comment about his preference.

Also note: as I said before, ultra-slim = sonoma (4 rows), not sierra (5 rows). For comparison between the two (e.g. weight), see:

I did more digging on this site, and the one that mentions blackberry in the name, appears to be the shasta model which either doesn't work or it requires a different keyboard driver/program to mostly work. So, I canceled that order and ordered the other igo slim line that others say pretty much works right out of the box. It should arrive next week and I can confirm.

Both my biz partner and I use Stowaways (now the ultra-slim model) with our N800s. I have the Dell branded black version and she has the Think Outside branded grey version. Both work great in both OS2007 and OS2008. I'm sure you guys will be fine.

I ordered this one from Amazon on Friday and received it today. I downloaded the Maemo Bluetooth Plugin version 0.6.1 from http://770.fs-security.com/maemo-bt-plugin/ . I installed the deb file through the application manager paired up the keyboard with my N800 running OS2007 and tested it for about 10 minutes and seems to work very well all the standard keys worked fine.

I believe OS2007 pairs with this keyboard without the plugin. I just set it up to broadcast, set the N800 to search for device and it paired with no issue. I think that maemo plugin was for OS2006

Moonshine, I have the Dell-branded stowaway and it pairs fine under OS2008 beta, but refuses to connect. Did I miss something? It was fine with OS2007.

I saw it @ $59.95 as well. I'm happy I jump on when it was 30 bucks :D
