So I don't need some fancy foldable keyboard, but a regular desktopsize one would totally suffice, but I only managed to find the apple one (nice, but over the top, and not really international). Also, could there be some PS/2 - Bluetooth adapter on the market?

A question to those who already have an extra keyboard in use: Do any screen-keyboard pop up, or can I type right into textfields, without anything obscuring the screen (i.e. tap or tip keyboards).

Still something else: What's with the "HID" (human interface device?), I just don't manage to find the right info of what that does or needs in terms of hardware.
This one is very nice: http://www.apple.com/keyboard/ (I mean the bluetooth version). I've already touched (and measured) the cable version, and if both pictures are taken from the same perspective then the size of the bluetooth version is approx. 233mm x 108mm. It will be available in a few weeks, and as discussed elsewhere in this forum chances are high that it conforms to HID and will work out of the box with the n800. Not fancy, but very solid and even beautiful.
