Are you compatible (I mean, “is your unit”)? The iGo manufacturer product link does not show ‘all’ compatible devices (but it might list yours).

“Works with over 500 Bluetooth smartphones and PDAs”

“iGo Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard is compatible with Palm OS, Pocket PC/Windows Mobile, Symbian OS, and WM Smartphone operating systems and supports devices from Palm, Acer, Audiovox, Cingular, HTC, Dell, T-Mobile, Motorola and more.”

“User programmable shortcut and command keys for fast access to other applications”

Includes carrying case & detachable PDA/phone stand-iGo

I had to find out about my Mac compatibility from an Expert Review. (It even works with an unlocked iPhone. This means that as the iPhone feature-set expands, it won’t take long before the ’standard’ iPhone works with this keyboard.)

Do you use your TV as a computer monitor and need a wireless keyboard?

Review: iGo Stowaway Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard

(Amazon.com: iGo Stowaway Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard) Retailing at $150, I found it at Amazon.com for $90. When I checked there just now the price had dropped to $29.99 with FREE Shipping (who knows for how long).

$29.99 – Amazon.com: iGo Stowaway Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard

Even should the price go up to $60, it would still be the lowest price I could find anywhere.

    Dec. 10, 11 AM ET — This Unadvertised deal is still going @ Amazon for $29.99 with free shipping.

    I just received mine Friday, 7 days after ordering.

    Unfortunately, it’s 87.87 today. Before I think about something like this, I’d like to clarify that this could be used with a Mac. I have a Mac Mini and am thinking of getting a portable keyboard and taking my Mac Mini traveling with me.

  4. enlightened411 Says:

    I just checked Lauren and the price is still $29.99. This is an unadvertised special, so Amazon reserves the right to change it at any time.

    Make sure you’re using the “$29.99 – Amazon…” link above.

    BTW, this keyboard works fine on a Mac. I recently tested mine on an iMac and I’ll be posting a review here shortly.

    Oops, I apologize. It’s the other keyboard (Amazon.com: Think Outside Universal Bluetooth Keyboard Stowaway: Electronics) that is $87.87. It has the number keys at the top whereas this one doesn’t. Still a savings of $50+ might be worth not having number keys.

  6. enlightened411 Says:

    This keyboard does have the numbers (1-0) printed on the top row (in ‘blue’) onto the “Q-W-E…” keys. They’re activated by pressing the ‘blue’ [Fn] button in combination with those keys.

    “!-@-#…” characters are likewise printed on the top row (in ‘green’) and are activated by pressing the ‘green’ [Fn] button in combination with those keys.

    The “[Fn]” buttons are located on either sides of the spacebar buttons and easily reached with your thumbs when touch-typing.

    Wanna’ good closeup of this keyboard and see what ‘green’ and ‘blue’ characters & functions are printed on its keys? Click on the “iGo manufacturer product link” shown above and then click on the “View Data Sheet” (PDF) link there. In Adobe Reader you can zoom in and read every key!

    BTW Lauren, the keyboard you looked at is also an iGo (formerly called ‘Think Outside’) product. Here’s the link to your keyboard at iGo:
