Damn that sucks. I haven't used it, though there was a blog about it working with the n810 (had to remap some buttons on there since those functions didn't exist on the n810) but it worked otherwise.
I got one and lotsa stuff does work so far only the media buttons look like a complete no go, unless some dedicated coder goes at that, but I'm working the kinks out and it seems to be the greatest keyboard for the n800, the only potential problem I can see is no f-keys
which drivers do you use to pair this iGo stowaway Ultra slim keyboard. mine will not pair for some reason and I cannot find the n800 model to download it off the www.thinkoutside.com site? not sure what i am missing here.
I have an igo stowaway bt ultra-slim keyboard, I bought it for 40$ from ebay with free priority shipping. I rarely use it, the most typing I ever do is here in the forums.

These are my quick instructions for the iGo stowaway BT keyboard. (A compilation of someone else's and my edits). Use the second set of instructions first time.
Connect igo keyboard to N810
_____________________________
1. Open Control Panel on the N810
2. (Optional I think) Double click 'Bluetooth keyboard', select 'Generic 105-key PC' and OK
3. Back in Control Panel double click 'Bluetooth' under connectivity
4. Make sure 'Bluetooth on' and 'Visible' are checked
5. Click on Button 'Devices'
6. On the Igo keyboard hold down the left CNTRL KEY, the BLUE fn key and the GREEN fn key at the same time. (A GREEN LED above the T key will begin to flash).
7. Select the 'Think Outside Keyboard'
8. Select 'Edit'
9. Select 'Connect'
If it will not connect you need to reinitiate the pairing as follows:
1. Select the 'Think Outside Keyboard' and 'Delete' under Bluetooth devices. Confirm with 'OK'
2. On the Igo keyboard hold down the left CNTRL KEY, the BLUE fn key and the GREEN fn key
3. Select 'New' and the N810 will find the Think Outside Keyboard
4. Select 'OK' and note the four digit PASSCODE number. (Set as trusted should be checked)
5.Select 'OK'and immediately enter the PASSCODE number on the keyboard (hold BLUE Fn, enter number and press Enter)
The Keyboard will then be paired. Close Control panel.
I have the 4 row Igo Stowawy.. had to pop the the pda holder off but it works like a charm. I mainly use it for e-mail although I will be attending a conference in Portland this summer and I am hoping to use it along with my n800 as a laptop replacement. Can anyone recommend a decent program for basic text input and no I don't want to learn e-macs

MaemoPad works great for me. It's just a simple text editor, but it's good enough.
