just watched a vid about this via twitter, gotta say the n8 is looking better each day with the specs, i just hope the next maemo/meego device does all what n8 can do and more.

symbian devices can do a lot of things maemo devices can't and vice versa.

Fremantle comes with the bluetoothd input plugin installed but disabled through /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
...
Then go to the bluetooth section pair the keyboard like any other bluetooth device and connect it.
You'll need to complete some extra steps to get the layout working properly. See Fremantle Bluetooth Keyboard Layout.

seeing the symbian based N8 get working keyboard and mouse support, when for the longest time people have more or less fought nokia to do the same on maemo devices (mouse oddities on N8*0, keyboard ****up on N900) makes one wonder what nokia is up to.
Be warned, posts are often line of thoughts at highway speeds...
