Bluetooth Mouse with OS2008
 
Now that we have OS2008, is possible to connect a Bluetooth Mouse?

Just like everyone else, I like to prop up my N800 on my desk with the kickstand, and browse the internet like it was intended to be used.

Even though the touchscreen is cool and all, it doesn't compare to the convenience and ease of a dedicated mouse and cursor. It would so much improve my browsing experience. At this point, I would even go for a USB corded mouse if possible.

Can any of you veteran Tablet users enlighten us on a possible Mouse
solution?

Thanks, Mike

Great question. A mouse would be cool.

Very cool indeed, I would pay for an app just for this ablility.

I think scrolling pages and clicking links on MircoB browser would be so much easier with a mouse. If I was a programmer I would be on this asap

I seem to recall reading about a way to enable the mouse pointer, don't remember where I saw that though..

I'm pretty sure it's possible :)

Search "bluetooth mouse" in the forums.

I had originally came up with this thread
http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...luetooth+mouse

It seemed to relate to only to OS2007 so I figured it would be better if I started a new one for the new OS2008. Anyway the solution they found was inclunclusive.

I'm hoping some kind talented programmer can read this and come up with a solution.

Ive got a BT mouse and had it working on a WM5 pda before. Played Quake with it and that was pretty cool.

I sure it can be done with Maemo, but someone got to figure it out....
