No, he means that not every device that has Bluetooth has the HID profile and also has support for Bluetooth keyboards in the OS. iOS devices such as the iPod and iPad do. And I believe bringing them up was EFO's marketing technique, and had nothing to do with Engadget's supposed Apple bias.]]>Aug 13th 2010 12:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 13th 2010 12:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Probably because the iPhone is the one product that don't have a physical keyboard and people are always bitching about.

Don't want to stir up more i vs a wars, but Android had lagged getting decent bluetooth support - not sure how it is now with Froyo as I don't want to buy something that "might" work.]]>Aug 13th 2010 5:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/

Here's a start: http://www.made-in-china.com/showroom/tychohk/product-detailteRnpAFcsfko/China-Touch-Screen-Transparent-Calculator.html

Just scale down a bit, maybe remove LCD (or maybe not, heck make it dot matrix for all I care), add more keys, add bluetooth thingie (should fit in ~1/8", have a look at dealextreme&co) and you're set.

Estimated ETA (guesstimate including Murphy-factors and bulk container shipping across the great blub-blub): about 3 months from now.]]>Aug 15th 2010 6:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 12th 2010 11:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 12th 2010 11:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 13th 2010 1:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 14th 2010 9:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 12th 2010 11:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/Aug 12th 2010 11:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/12/efo-rolls-out-credit-card-sized-ipazzport-mini-bluetooth-keyboar/

If your making something for the iPhone or other portable devices I would expect to see some buttons and capabilities that the current keyboard does NOT have. Not just a physical manifestation of what I already have virtually. Just my 2 cents.
