Worked a treat! Muchias gracias! I've been diddling with BT keyboards on 770/800 for a YEAR, on and off. Finally, one works. Especially nice is that the N800 display lights when a BT keyboard key is pressed. I find that the N800/BusyBox does not have wget. Not seeing a real easy way to download kbdd.tar.gz in a term on the N800, I downloaded to a Ubuntu box using wget and then used the N800's mc to copy it over with "Shell Link". From there, everything went exactly as advertised. I wonder what's wrong the the "out of the box" setup? I wonder if I can now get my big microsoft brand BT keyboard to work? -- Willie, ONWARD!

RE: HP iPAQ BT keyboard
I encountered that error a few times too... Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Sounds like our experiences are identical-- I just hope you get the best of it like I did.

I tried again, this time with a "passcode" of to make the typing go faster. Now, instead of "Authentication failed", I get "Device resources exceeded". Also tried a single digit passcode of "9". It now seems random whether I get "resources exceeded" or "Authentication failed". Come on, someone out there, either there is something I don't understand about BT "pairing" or there is a bug.

RE: HP iPAQ BT keyboard
I encountered the same problem with my Nokia bt keyboard and the N800. Took something like 20 tries to get past the authentication, but I was eventually successful. Note that I only used 4 characters of my own choosing. Definitely seemed to be a timing issue.
