After seeing diNovo mini in action, it's got me so aroused!
This triggers me to think about bringing WM device to be a more interactive media device, especially, something like Logitech's diNovo mini for HTPC.
I'm just wondering if any developer can come up with an app that connects Kaiser to the PC via bluetooth, and turn it into an input device with the qwerty keyboard and touchscreen as a touchpad D best if this can be integrated with Sideshow! LOL). Silly?
p.s. Hey! I know I'm just daydreaming~but if anyone has the same ideas, interests, and ability to make this happen, summon your strengths!

Actually, I've been looking for a way to do this myself The closest I've got, is using remote desktop connected to the computer through WiFi. It's fun, but unpractial and not quite the solution i was looking for.
So, this possible?
I use "Signal" a program for controlling iTunes via Wifi which works well as i use itunes to stream music to different parts of the house. Its also skinable too!
In the past with my Blue Angel not only did i use that but also used Novii Remote for Stereo, TV, Sky, DVD etc and also as a remote for lights in my house.
Almost like House hold universal remote!
I have found a program called salling clicker that will control almost any media program. It also does mouse control and can send the keyboard input to the computer.
The problem is the mouse control and keyboard input are separate parts of the program so for example if I want to type in the address bar I have to go into mouse mode, move the cursor up to the bar and tap, then go into the message mode and type the address, then back to mouse mode. If it were all tied in together it would be the ultimate program for that. They may make an improvement on it too I haven't checked lately.
BTW, this is a much better deal than just the Denovo Mini because with the phone you have the screen to look at when browsing for files etc.
I found a script somebody did for salling clicker that puts keyboard and mouse together. It's written for the TyTN but works on my TyTNII. I'm also going to look into tweaking it this weekend! Looks like I need to return my Dinovo Mini.

First you have to get the program called 'Salling Clicker' - it installs on your computer that you want to control.
When you have it installed and your PDA setup to connect using wifi or bt you just have to add the custom script onto your computer in the My Documents/My Clicker Scripts folder.
Then add the script using the programs menu on the computer and connect using your phone.
This is the one I use for my PS3:

And without any aditional software (beside PK 3.0) it works flawlessly on my Ameo, touchpad included!
Battery Life?
I have a media board and also the diNovo edge as well, but prior to playing around with them, I was wondering what type of battery life that you are getting when you are using your BT keyboard? I have noticed that if I am using my BT headset and I get it below 50% I can't charge the device fast enough to keep it working. Have you had similar issues with your keyboard?
Thanks,
Bob
could u use your keyboard as a normal input device??
does it work with work or notepad??
I'm owner of a Hp iPaq 614 with Windows Mobile 6.5..
i've download the ROM from here
Thanx
I used to want a BT or USB keyboard & mouse, but then I found this: http://mymobiler.com/
It does two things. It puts the Athena's screen on your laptop's screen (resizable so its easy to see) and lets you use that keyboard and mouse/touchpad. Or, you can use the Athena's screen as an extension of your laptop's desktop area. I never do that.
I haven't needed the VGA output or BT/USB input since.
ok.. i will have a look to My Mobiler
does it work without this prog?
EDIT:
My Mobiler allow you to control your mobile through your pc
my question was if you can use the keyboard as an Input Device wiz ur Windows Mobile Phone
without using pc or laptops
I didn't say it was necessary for the Mediaboard. I was offering this as an alternative which is free and gives you an external monitor and external keyboard/mouse input for a WM phone.
thx m8....
Hello,
some weeks ago I have this discovered this mini-keyboard, which you can link to the PC via bluetooth and use as a keyboard and mouse:
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3848&cl=us,en
http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj0MF58-ElA
My first impression when I saw it, it was that this device looks similar to my TyTn 2, especially when the PDA has the keyboard open...
So, this is exactly my question. Exists any kind of software for my PDA that allows to link the keyboard of the TyTn to the PC and, for example, use its touch-screen as a mouse?
Thanks
very interesting i would also be very interested in this as well...
That is a pretty good idea. I got a freee BT keyboard from amazon though.
yea there is, but it uses wifi. I can't remember the name of it now, but I think it was posted already. I will look when I get home.

tried and hit wall
Last week I begun developing/experimenting on such an app, to use the kaiser as a bluetooth HID mouse.
I did manage to get windows to recognize and install it as a HID mouse, but could not establish a connection. The problem is that the M$ bluetooth stack does not seem to allow me to attach to the L2CAP layer and implement my custom profile (the HID profile in this case).
If anyone has more information on how to access the L2CAP, please share .
The kaiser would be a wonderful remote mouse/keyboard for my htpc configuration!

I'd like to use an external bluetooth keyboard with the HD2.
It should:
1) Be compatible with HD2
2) Be compact / foldable
3) Should include "mouse" support (touchpad, trackpoint, ...)
4) If possible it should be able to hold the HD2 (Athena like)
Could anybody recommend one?
Would HD2 transparently work with any BT/HID keyboard including the mouse support (pointer displayed on HD2 screen driven by trackpoint/touchpad from BT keyboard)?
Same here. Just wanted to push this thread. I would be very much interested in having such a device since my laptop is crap and I never gonna buy one again.
HD2 questionmarks
Nobody has an experience connecting bluetooth keyboard and mouse to Windows Mobile device???
And second question: is there a chance that HD2 is physically able to have USB Host and TV Out, but there just aren't drivers and TV cable at the moment?
I have - I used to use BlueInput drivers from Teksoft to connect a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard with my Touch HD.
Unfortunately however the HD2 seems to be using Broadcom bluetooth stack drivers that aren't compatible with BlueInput (Touch Pro2 owners have the same problem), so now I can't use then anymore -_-... at least until they make the BlueInput software compatible with Broadcom drivers or some Chef hacks in the Microsoft Bluetooth stack into a custom rom.
Haven't tried the default Stowaway keyboard drivers that came with the keyboard though, so maybe I can get the keyboard working again, but not the mouse until BlueInput is working.
Also very interested! Love how the Celio Redfly worked with my X1 but with HD2 no luck so far...
yep looking on with much interest
Guys, redfly is working. for both bluetooth connection and usb.
Also, as for kb, i recommand logitech dinovo mini. Its great
conect usb keyboard
I like to connect usb keyboard is this possible....i need help.. the bluetooth keyboard i dont like it because it takes to connect ...is posible for usb.
thank gracias
Dear Folks
I have the iGO bluetooth keyboard that works great - I purchased this about 18 months ago for use with my Nokia E63.
Now I keep it on my desk and is an excellent way of replying to emails and text messages.
I am going to try SWYPE, for when I'm on the move.

I have tried a few blutooth keyboards but you can't seem to use the arrow keys like you would want to..
The arrow keys work fine on my BB keyboard.

It seems we'll have this the easy way. Teksoft has posted a news on their site, about a Broacom compatible Blueinput version.
I managed to get the Thinkoutside Stowaway BT keyboard working fine with the HTC HD2 without the use of any special drivers.
However, I am unable to connect my Stowaway BT mouse to the HD2. I tried the latest (2004) drivers for the keyboard which suppose to have the same drivers for the mouse as well.
No luck.
I tried to pair the following BT mouse:
* Logitech BT laptop mouse
* Microsoft BT 5000 mouse
Again - no luck.
Does anyone yet been able to connect the Stowaway BT mouse (or any other BT mouse) with the HD2?
hi,
as stated here some times already, it looks that hd2 only have a driver/dll that supports bt keyboards but not mices. its a step back because my old advantage has no problem accessing mices. so as long as blueinput or other drivers released there will be no luck with this. i personaly wait for 3party drivers too, so i can use my bt keyboard in my mother language, wich is also impossible in the moment.
regards mad
Just install blueinput from:
http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=products&platform=1&pid=5
Should work, tried it on my HD (with ROM 6.5.5 24001)

Isn't the logitec dinovo mini a keyboard and not a mouse? I too would like to find a mouse that works well with my HD2 - I suspect that when (and if) a new BT Stack and Drivers are issued then most products will work but..... when.... Sigh...
Dinovo Mini has a touchpad on the right side of the keyboard - I'd post pics but I'm still a noob. Out of the box bluetooth connectivity with mice and keyboards would have been great, let's hope it gets on the HD2 soon.
I also just tried my Stowaway Kbd and Mouse with My HD2.
The keyboard paired and worked fine without any additional drivers, just with the internal BT HID service.
Not so with the mouse.
Then I installed the Stowaways own Windows Mobile keyboard and mouse drivers. That driver enabled that mouse to work on every other WM touchscreen device I have had.
Doesn't work though. When one starts the Stowaway app to enable and set up the mouse, it does not recognize the BT stack of the HD2 at all.
Does anyone know what BT stack the HD2 has? Widcomm? Microsoft? What version?
Unfortunately, there will not be any new Stowaway drivers coming out. The company that made it, ThinkOutside, was bought up by IGo, who shortly after discontinued all its products.
If someone finds a hack to get it to work, please let us know.
This is an old problem. HD2 uses the Widcomm BT stack, and this doesn't support bluetooth mouse profile.
MS BT stack supports the mouse profile, and as far as I'm aware this cannot/has not been imported to the HD2 by anyone.
Teksoft claimed to have a solution and showed a video of the HD2 running a BT mouse, but the actual product didn't materialise:

Did you happen to succeed in pairing and connecting it with Android builds ?
Dell Stoaway Keyboard pairing problem
Hi,
I just installed the latest Energy Rom and I am not able to pair it with the Dell Stowayway keyboard. It used to be OK with my previous HTC Polaris. Is this related to the HID Driver?
Basically, once I install the driver which comes with the BT keyboard, the HD2 recognizes the BT keyboard, but the 'enable' button on the HD2 application is not pressable, it is grey.
Any ideas? Could you please shortly explain you did it?
Thanks
