Welcome to A's first ever blog from a bluetooth keyboard and a mobile phone.
The product we'll be both using and reviewing in this entry is vastly inferior bluetooth generic keyboard. It's available under many names but always has the same appearance. This iteration known as a BK600 Universal keyboard that was shipped to Japan from the folks at Suntek in China.
The keyboard software is far from universal until you scour Google and find yourself a generic bluetooth keyboard driver for your Series 60 3rd edition Symbian powered Nokia N73. The software in the box is several generations old and wouldn't install at all. Nokia's own generic bluetooth driver is about effective as an edible fork and only after a few minutes of hitting dead links and downloading third party drivers did this reviewer stumble upon a suitable fit.
Once downloaded the driver seems to work fairly well. What doesn't work so well however is the rather crucial component known as the 'keyboard'. This cheap tacky piece of plastic warps and wobbles with each button press. Every second button press requires backspacing to correct a typo due to a key that didn't register. The 'N' key is consistently absent without leave and the shift key very rarely decides to join in the blogging fun. Each button wiggles in a random direction when pressed and won't register a character on screen unless hammered down with force that comes only from cheating girlfriend rage directly from directly above. Tapping most keys from a type-touch typing position provokes only a quiet derisive snigger from this particular marvel of modern technology. These little square bitches wanna be punished.
Blogging on the road is clearly destined to be test that will require olympian serenity to overcome. My advice to you is if you are in the market for a bluetooth keyboard for your Nokia in Japan, try to find a way to import one of Nokia's official SU-8W keyboards. By most accounts it's a more sturdy typing experience and may not be a keyboard that adds an extra 14% violent rage to your blog posts.
