I've been trying to get a new Igo Stowaway slimline BT keyboard running for a day now and need some help.

First, please understand that I've seached the forums and I see a lot of pairing problems, but not the problem I'm having.

I used Ctrl + Fn left + Fn right and I've got the keyboard blinking and I've selected "generic keyboard and English - USA", my N800 does a search and says "no devices found"

My N800 has the latest release of OS2008. I've followed posts that say to select "visible" in the bluetooth menu.

I used Ctrl + Fn left + Fn right and I have a blinking green light at 1hz and my notebook computer sees a "Think Outside" device.

I've tried downgrading the OS to OS2007 and OS2008 beta like some post suggest, no luck.

I've used gainroot and looked for this device in the bluetooth folder only to find the mac for the N800.

I've removed the batteries and rebooted countless times.

I've search the web, again only to find lots of posts about problems pairing - not problems of detection.

ANY help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

....you did put the igo in pairing mode before searchign for it right? i think its ctrl + both Fn buttons until the orange light blinks every second

Yes, I used Cntrl + Fn Left + Fn right. Sorry I didn't make myself clear on that.

umm... think i searched for nokia KB, dont remember. found mine at once, so sorry i cant help you

I got my iGo yesterday, followed these instructions, and they worked perfectly. (I'm using OS2008 on n800.)

Once you get yours paired, see if you're having this problem. If yes, then please vote.

This is killing me, everyone seems to have no problems detecting the keyboard, maybe it's defective?

Try pairing it with a laptop/pc/phone if it works, then it's just a pairing problem...

Superstar, I just paired it with my LG envy cell phone so it looks like the keyboard is fine. The Nokia N800 just doesn't see it! I don't get it, the N800 reports "No devices found"

Did you try lm2's link?

Yes, I did. I get tripped up in step 10, the N800 never sees the keyboard.
