In most applications, click and hold for a few seconds and a context menu will appear.

BT keyboards are supported (via 3rd party utility for 770 or N800/OS2007, via included utility for N800/OS2008 or N810) but BT mice are not.

Right click doesn't work in KDE. However, there are alternate ways to do everything that you would normally use right-click for, so I personally just use the alternates. Do you need help figuring out the alternative method?

As for Bluetooth keyboard - Penquinbait included a link to Maemo Control Panel in the system tray of KDE (it looks like a wrench) Tap that and turn on bluetooth and use your BT keyboard just like in Maemo. Only difference is that it's more difficult to remember to turn BT off when you're done (it really sucks up battery) because there's no icon to remind you that it's on :o

I don't have KDE installed, however, I'm wondering if maybe they do it like some other apps do... vncviewer, for example uses the "-" key (zoom out) for the middle mouse button and the "+" key (zoom in) for the right mouse button. In vncviewer, I hold down the + key and then touch the screen with the stylus to get a right click.

Probably not, judging by some of the comments above.

Not to mention that holding down the + (or any other key) is a real bear with the on screen keyboard :D Sorry couldn't resist the jab.
