Do we know of any other options on the market? Surely there's better options around.

^ He intimated that MeeGo's dead, he's never said there won't be Maemo-based devices.
Plenty of accessory makers made great accessories for the N900.
And it wasn't even pushed as a mass-market device at all, unlike the N9.
Also luckily we have the Lumia 800, that will create extra demand.
Given the nature of the accessory, it can be easily retro-fitted for the N9.
Nokia & MS are pushing the L800 with all their might in targeted countries.
And that list for targeted countries has been steadily growing.
Nok still hasn't done the same for the N9 yet, in countries it was held-away from.
I'm not sure they ever will now, despite them saying earlier they would.
Although I've heard rumors it's coming to India in March+ (far too late though).

Folks that put their vote in for this, should mention that!
Or just say you have a L800.

EDIT:Finally able to get btkb to work on n9 but current problem for me is I cannot enter text when in full screen mode. Hope there is a fix.

Answer should be there IIRC, but if not post in that thread.

Does anyone know of a similar accessory, but better quality than this?*
The OEM may be interested in making a product for the N9+L800 communities.
If you don't know of anything else, then at least post your vote...
Make sure you mention that they'd also be catering for the L800 community!
