For the record: N900 does not have IRDA.

I'm actually looking at the Freedom Pro Bluetooth Keyboard now. It can be found on Amazon at:

Has anyone used this keyboard with the N900? If so, how well did the media/shortcut keys work?

Another interesting option is the Menotek Flexible Bluetooth Waterproof Mini Keyboard.

It can be found on Amazon at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...pf_rd_i=507846

Manufacturer's product page: http://menotek.com/101899.html (Amazing website, huh)

It's significantly cheaper, and would probably be nicer to type on, judging from my experience with a similar full-size wired keyboard. However, it looks as if it would be nowhere near as portable as the Freedom Pro Keyboard.

Hey, not to get you worried or anything, but it would appear that Amazon (at least in the US) has sold out of their N900s; I just checked this morning, and they now are only offering it from a third party (at, unfortunately, a higher price). I guess this means that the supply of N900s is starting to dry up...
