Hello,
I must agree with those who have had difficulty pairing with Stowaway Keyboard. I had no trouble with the 2007 OS, but the new 2008 seems not to have an adequate time interval to accept the carefully enterred code confirmation from the keyboard. HOWEVER, I made the mistake of restoring a back-up on the initial flash AND when I reflashed without restoring the previous back up and then immediately attempted to pair with my "Think Outside Stowaway" keyboard, the connection was established IMMEDIATELY. I hope this works for others as well as it did in my case. I also regret doubting the NOKIA 2008 update, which seems to have much potential. JW
