Logitech Di Novo

[SeanBlader]

So I got my N95-4 on Friday from Dell and as I was going through setting it up and transferring everything over from my old 6230 I learned that the N95 would connect to a bluetooth keyboard, so I pulled out the old Di Novo Media keyboard put some batteries into it and in a few moments I got it connected and have been able to type into the N95 anytime. Very cool. I'm only using the 80+ key base keyboard and haven't bothered connecting the number pad but as is, it's a nice little tool for more typing should I need to do it.

nice. you used the phone's wireless keyboard connectivity?

That's very cool :) I'm expecting to receive the DiNovo Edge Mini keyboard in a few days, I'll definitely try it with my N95 and share my findings here :)

I dont think I can handle using a keyboard to type on my phone, I'm pretty decent with t9 though.

Yeah Dayene, used the bluetooth wireless keyboard connection, it was surprisingly easy. And I definitely agree it is weird using a keyboard with the phone. I ordered the USB sync/charging cradle so once I can get the phone to stand up, it might be easier to type into it with a keyboard, but it will definitely take some getting used to. Course the only time I think I could type enough to warrant the keyboard is also times when I could take my laptop with me. Still it's neat that it worked right out of the box.

I have a shiny ThinkOutside Sierra BT keyboard and love it. Helps tremendously when blogging or typing up emails which is usually the only time I use it. You should bust that thing out in a meeting and see peoples' reactions. It's classic. "You use a keyboard with your cell phone?!" Then you show them what the phone really does. Ahhh it's nice to be king...

A question about the di-novo keyboard with the n95. I'm type quite fast and i just wondered does your typing speed have any effect on the n95 processing this speed considering its processor is not as fast as on a usual laptop?

[dayene]

i don't use my bt keyboard much. i'd use it if i go on a mini trip and don't want to bring my laptop...just plug the phone to the tv and you get a bigger screen. :)

im typing on my new denovo mini now. however, i cant get it to work with my n95 8gig.

i went to tools > bluetooth > (right) > (options) > new paired device > other devices

i then hit the sync button on the dinovo and it showed up fine.

however, the keyboard does not appear to function at all. none of the buttons, arrows, or mouse functions work at all.

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. if you can point me somewhere, please email me at asdlkf@asdlkf.net
