At this time the N900 does not support OTG and thus not even a usb keyboard will work. The community hopes this changes in the future.

I should also ask, what chipset does your Alfa usb card use? If it is a RTL8187L (detects as RTL8187) then you are golden, the RTL8187B is a crappier version and uses a different driver. lsusb + the model # should suffice.
alpha 500mw = the RTL8187L (AWUS036H 500mw)

no OTG -> U mean that we can't connect the external wifi 500mw? Is that what ur trying to say? For keyboard, bluetooth is fine.
