Which Bluetooth keyboard for N810? MS Mobile KB 6000 or Apple Wireless Keyboard?
 
I want to buy a bluetooth keyboard for my N810.

So far i have found two devices that look both ok for me.
But now i need to know which one should be prefered/ is better.

The 2 keyboards are:

Apple Wireless keyboard
http://www.apple.com/keyboard/

Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000
http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mo...s.aspx?pid=016


I want have a portable bleutooth keyboard, so weight and size counts for my.
AFAIK the apple keyboard weights less than the MS keyboard.
On the other side the MS keyboard is a true full 105 key x86 PC keyboard and this could be valuable, because i do have a PC, but not a Mac.


So what do you think about the two keyboards?
Which one is the better choice?
Which one do you recommend?

From a price point they cost both nearly the same.

Consider also the rollabe rubber (silicone?) keyboards.
There are compact models without number pad.

Mine has a USB connection and works well with USB OTG without extra power,
but I have not checked battery drainage.
( Can do if you need it.)

I like that it is dust and water protected, makes packing easy,
especially as it needs no protection against breaking.

The keys need a slightly higher pressure, which I quickly got used to,
and give a nice clicky feed-back. A flat support is of course needed.
( Mind, I am not a touch typist.)

It is great.
Connecting the keyboard to my N810 running chinnok and now diablo works without problems.

But now i need a xkeyboard map for my Apple Wireless keyboard.
How can i create one?
Or are there packages available to install them in maemo extra?
