The keyboard does power itself off after a short time, which can be annoying. It also powers down just to start folding it. It /almost/ always reconnects by pressing the power button. Every once in a while, it does not, and I have to use the bluetooth icon that appeared by installing the drivers. When I turn on the keyboard, it usually just says "device connected" and that is that. I have noticed that if the screen has gone black and I turn the keyboard on without "waking up" the device, it will not be connected until I click on the Bluetooth icon. I always try to remember to interrupt the screen/power saver before I turn on the keyboard.

I have heard it rebooting in my jacket pocket during the day too. I will look for a trend but I haven't noticed it happening lately.

The one I use is MyPasswordSafe, but it has not been updated in quite some time. http://www.semanticgap.com/myps/ I see from the psafe pages that there are some other versions out, I'll have to try them. The biggest ioncompatibility is that the Linux one is only in tree mode, and has no flat mode, which is a problem, since not all my passwords are categorized logically. Also, the usernames do not always appear on the entries, although the passwords are always there, and I can usually figure out the password.

Nightly reboots
My N800 has been restarting each night sometime after 2am EST (that's as late as I've been up). I leave it plugged in either on my night table or on my desk and when I go to use it in the am, it's clearly been restarted (bluetooth off, no apps open). Is there any way to see what's causing this to try and prevent it from happening?

Re: N800: Problem with "Nokia Internet Call Invitation (Beta)"
mine activated and I've also activated it on a second n800 and made calls between them. Assume you've restarted and tried again?

The Maemo port is not fully sane (e.g., when you add a new entry, you get a read-only view dialog first and have to press the "edit" button to actually enter something), but it works.

Isn't there some GNOME database app that could be ported? How about Glom (assuming it is possible to make it use sqlite instead of postgresql)?
