Similar sized bluetooth keyboard?

Hello,
I just wanted to ask if anyone has found a keyboard thats similar sized to the galaxy tab itself.
This is the closest one I could find:
http://www.amazon.com/Handheld-Blue...SI/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1302267348&sr=8-11
But I've seen some pics and vids of other keyboard which seem to be of good size. What keyboards could you recommend?
Thanks

I got myself one of these bad boys...
http://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Key...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1302275661&sr=1-3
It's folder/keyboard/stand all in one. The keyboard feels like an old spectrum keyboard (if that means anything to you) and is VERY responsive! Basically, it turns the tablet into a netbook.
Incidentally, I got mine for £25, so it was a bit cheaper than that. If you want one, shop around.

I just got the Logitech Dinovo Mini and it works perfectly. It's actually smaller than the tab and fits in one hand.

Thanks for the link Yea I've seen that one, but I don't quite like how you have to open a flap to prop it up.
Then again, the others that come up as in your link seem to be quite good, there is one that props up by slightly folding the case
^^ I'm just going to browse a bit more. Thanks for the links guys!

What about the Sprint Galaxy Tab version?
It appears that the Sprint GT has had the HID bluetooth disabled. Does anybody know if there is a fix for this? I would love to have one of the Cases that include the BT Keyboard for obvious reasons.
Thanks

i use the Mac small Bluetooth keyboard, which is also used for the Imac etc.... It works fine, immediately recognized by the Tab! costs in the Netherlands are about 50 $.

I do hope that some company makes a case are cool and awesome as the clamcase and crux360 (available only for the ipad)
I know some might say "just buy a netbook then". But serious, how many netbooks have such a long standby? How many will let you only use the screen... etc etc.
>.> Maybe just save up and get an Asus transformer...

BT Keyboard
I also use the Apple Bluetooth keyboard. It works great and it's rather comfortable to type with, the keys are responsive and the batteries last for months. It's a few inches longer than the Tab, so it may not quite be what you're looking for, but it's a great match for the Tab, despite being a Jobsian issue.
Be aware that there are some apps that have BT settings that will conflict with the use of any BT device and I had a GREAT MANY very frustrating device freezes requiring several reboots to correct. I was ready to shatter the device's screen and cut my own throat with the broken glass (hyperbole) until I found out about this unknown setting in Pandora for BT sync with an autotive BT system. After that was unticked, I didn't have anymore freezing issues *knock on wood*, so be wary of that.

That's nice to here I'm very keen on this one, just because its so close in dimensions to the tab itself. But then I'm thinking of getting a slightly larger one (probably the xoom keyboard or apple keyboard) since I could use it at home as well. Decisions decisions...
But I'm so envious of the clamcase I'm going to be annoying and ask if they have plans for the tab. Doubt it since its "old" and probably not too popular. But hey, who knows
Out of curiosity, who'd buy a clamcase if it was made for the tab? I would definitely!

Has anyone had any experience with this:

And btw this site also does the case with Bluetooth keyboard linked in the second post for alot less than Amazon.

I've been working on trying to get the xoom keyboard to connect to my tab and so far I've got no where. It shows up in the bluetooth screen after a scan, but it just fails to give me a window to enter a paring number and gives me a message that I failed to enter the pairing number (which it then shows me) that is different every time.
Have you had any luck connecting one to your SGT?

Just connect it as you will with a bluetooth earpiece.

I haven't got a xoom keyboard still having a difficult time choosing a keyboard.

Have been using the Logitech DiNovo Edge with the Galaxy Tab. Works just fine, but it is nowhere close to being portable! Anyway, the keyboard is falling apart after years of use, and I was debating between the diNovo Mini and the Logitech Mediaboard. I will be using it not just with the Tab, but also in a HTPC setup.
I feel the Mini is too small for extended typing and the reviews say it is a bit flimsy. I had almost decided on the Mediaboard... when I spotted this Iogear.
http://www.amazon.com/Multi-Link-Bl..._1_cc_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1305288857&sr=1-3-catcorr
Awaiting delivery. The specs are great, and the price is decent. Plus the model debuted at CES 2011, so I am assuming it is more 'modern' and up to date with drivers and profiles than the Logitech products which are a few years old now...
Will update once I have played around with the Iogear.

So many keyboards mentioned...
There's news of a transformer like keyboard for the galaxy tab 10
So jealous I mean I'd even settle for that horizontal keyboard dock for the 8.9. Sexy. I think our best bet would be to wait for the BB playbook to be released. Since its similar sized, we might be able to use their cases/docks etc...
Here's an interesting link/video:
http://www.mobilmania.cz/clanky/tyden-mobilne-honzovy-korejske-hracky/sc-3-a-1316339/default.aspx
Looks like the main prob with our current tab is that the docking port is orientated in portrait rather than landscape

Do all the designated shortcut keys like music and volume work? I have the Samsung dock keyboard but not being able to use it in landscape mode kills it. Really like all the shortcut keys though.

Recommendation for Keyboard

Hi All,
Can anyone recommend a decent BT keyboard to work inline with the Nexus 7??
Cheers

I really like this one...

Very nice quality.

I have also been looking for one, however every one I have seen on various websites is either stupidly high in price or has a lot of negative reviews from other android owners.

I have this and it works great. I'd also assume the motorola one would work just as well, but I think it's pricier. You can get a generic keyboard much cheaper, but you don't get the android keys (home, back,menu,search).

I had the Motorola one and the quality was really so-so. Much nicer to type on the Logitech.

Should add that the Logitech tablet keyboard for iPad is £15 cheaper than the Android variant: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0053FAL...de=asn&creative=22206&creativeASIN=B0053FAL24
Can't see why it wouldn't work, it uses Bluetooth too. So maybe it's just the function keys that are the difference between the Android and iPad versions?
Also had a few other decent-looking bluetooth keyboards bookmarked:

I have the Touchpad keyboard. Works great with Android, and fits well in a bag. Though the media keys don't map to fn keys and there's no ALT.
The Perixx looks really good. So good that now that you've brought it to my attention I might flog my TP keyboard on eBay and get one.

I'm pretty happy with my apple keyboard heh. It's full size for typing, and small for throwing in my bag and my favorite feel for a keyboard next to my Model M. I bought it for my nook color when there weren't even decent android keyboards to buy if you wanted to. It was good to my nook, and it's even better to my nexus

I'm not trying to troll, but why do you want a keyboard for a tablet. I've never understood this. Isn't that what a laptop or netbook is for? Just curious.....maybe I'm missing something.

You can't detach the keyboard from a laptop or netbook. You also can't hold a laptop or netbook in your hands while using it. A tablet with a keyboard accessory has more versatility and portability than a laptop, the only question is whether you'll find the apps and OS sufficient to do your work.
Back to the topic, I picked up the Logitech keyboard today. Best tablet keyboard I've used so far, certainly much better than the poopy one I got with the dock on my old TF101. Pick one up if you can spare the cash.

ThinkOutside
I use my ThinkOutside BT keyboard. It works a treat. It can be a bit pricey from some places, cheaper from others, but I think they are all teh same thing. I have had mine about 5 years, and it works with almost all devices.
Pros:
1. Thin
2. Full-size keys
3. proper keys with travel (not rubber)
4. Stand for phone or small tab
Cons:
1. Price?
2. ?

Had this same issue last week and while the Logitech is good, it is expensive without getting a refurbished one.
I got a Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000, it works perfectly, portable and comfy to type on. Also its only $35 on amazon

Ever tried typing into a tablet, with your fingers, on a train in the UK ?
A keyboard ups the WPM dramatically
Also working well a Gigabyte GM-M7700B Bluetooth Laser Mouse.

Best inexpensive keyboard case available?

Any input or sugestions before I buy a keyboard case that might be sub-par? I see some online for as low as $12, just want to know if others have had good luck with them.
Im mostly looking to take notes in meetings. My net-book is about 4 years old and ready to retire.

I just want a mini keyboard, without a case that can easily be used if and when needed.
I found one for £7 but don't know if it works with JellyBean and a.k.a the Nexus 7

word of warning though. those keyboards are usually too small to be really useful. or at least that's how i feel.

My experience with Bluetooth keyboards, and Bluetooth in general, has been awful. I have bought two separate bluetooth keyboard cases for the Nexus 7 and they don't connect very well. I will be in the middle of typing and all of a sudden the keyboard will stop responding to my keystrokes. The keyboard is still on, bluetooth is still on on the device, but it just "poof" stops working. What a waste of money.

Bluetooth Aluminum Keyboard Case/Stand - Similar to Logitech Keyboard Case for iPad

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...sPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_2264wt_1037
As the title suggests, it looks similar to the Keyboard Case offering that Logitech have for the iPads. So what's everyone's take on it? Looks pretty functional in terms of the keyboard, but in terms of a case, I wonder how practical it is.

Nice find I have been looking for this.
Thanks!

similar found for UK
Found a similar one on the UK amazon site called IVSO wireless bluetooth keyboard case for Google Nexus 7 Tablet (BLACK Keys) (by Gambolex). Has anyone used it yet? Just worry that the keys will come into contact with the screen as it did a similar case I had for my Vega. Size-wise it looks like a 7" folding PU leather keyboard case for my wayteq xpad. Took a while to get used to but seemed pretty good

wow that actually looks really nice! does the tablet "snap" into the keyboard when its being used as a keyboard (as opposed to snapping on as a case)? that is my only concern, having it slide off the keyboard and falling unprotected to the ground lol

I'm typing this message on one now. Very impressed with the quality. Size is going to take some timeto get used to though, but what else to expect from a 7 inch keyboard. The nexus just sits in the slot, feels quite sturdy but there's no clipping. Case clips over the nexus well, but wouldn't survive a drop.

i am typing on mine and very happy with it.
idea for manufacturer though....
i am sure that not all available space under the cover is taken by the battery and that there must be some added weight to keep it steady with tablet in the slot.
why not use all of the space for a heavy duty battery (heavy in weight as well) and put some pogo pins in the slot to top-up N7 battery

My IVSO keyboard arrived today. It took 7 days to arrive in Ireland from date of order (via Amazon). Keyboard feels solid. Looks good in use and when stored in the case. When I placed the order the photos of keyboard showed that there was no tab key, see (sorry, but cannot add links as I am a new member). HOWEVER the one that arrived has a tab key above the enlarged 'Q' key (along the same line as the number keys). I have attached some photos here. Apologies if I don't have the orientation right. Have been using it for a few hours now and it feels as good as the much more expensive keyboard I bought for my work IPAD (about euro90). The keys are a little crowded and I am hitting the wrong key sometimes, but in fact no more than I do as a hunter and pecker on a full scale keyboard.
I also took the opportunity when ordering to buy the IVSO OTG host cable (which with the Nexus Media Importer app) allowed me to connect a 16GB USB stick to the Nexus 7. I could open photos, videos and play music I have been told to be careful when order the cable as not all will work with the Nexus. I tried attaching a USB 1TB drive but as expected it did not show up as an available device. Am on the look out for a good 64GB or 128GB USB stick and when I locate one, I will try it out on the Nexus like the 16GB one. The OTG connection is a little bit wonky and loose. It doesn't feel 100% secure, but having said it has not fallen out yet. But it wouldn't take much to knock it out I think. Yet, for the price, it opens up a whole new way of increasing the (derivative) memory of the Nexus 7 and that is a great thing.
I think the key board and cable are great accessories, and I am using the keyboard to write this message with few mistakes for a hunter and pecker.
Also, if anyone is looking to convert their bose sound dock to a bluetooth device, check out the I-Wave device (again, sorry but I cannot add hyperlinks) which also arrived today and allows me to stream via bluetooth from the Nexus to my bose sounddock. So far, so good and if it continues to work out, then it will have saved me 100's of euros buying a specially made wireless/bluetooth bose speaker (there are videos on you tube showing a bloke demonstrating its versatility).

Just sent PM. The company supplier is Gambolex in China. My Amazon order page (for the delivered good) is saying it is now out of stock. When I ordered stock was low. But might be worth contacting them direct?

I have one as well with a tab button. My keys are extremely small... I like it as a case but it's not a great keyboard for me... Great to watch movies and play video games on while it's in typing position though...

Nexus 7 roll-away/gel keyboard

I'm looking for a keyboard to use with my Nexus 7 but don't want a rigid/hard keyboard. I would prefer a soft roll-away kind.
Does anyone know if these exist and work with nexus 7?

A Laser Virtual Keyboard is even more compact.

Looks like there's one on KickStarter that uses bluetooth. It's about 49-59 USD if you can wait till Aug or Sept. Linkage here.
Edit: BTW what Username Invalid was referring to was probably this.

Looks like there's one on KickStarter that uses bluetooth. It's about 49-59 USD if you can wait till Aug or Sept. Linkage here.

I can't say with 100% certainty, but I would assume it would work. Many other users have used USB keyboards via OTG and never had issues. Personally, my wireless USB keyboard works fine.
The only constraint you need to worry about, in general, is if the device draws too much power from the USB and if your device can handle the power drain. But based upon that keyboard I'd be pretty sure it'd work without issues.

yeah. Power draw may be an issue. I cant seem to find any flexi keyboards with bluetooth, does anyone happen to know if there are any, apart from the one originally posted.

got many results off of amazon. However, a lot of their reviews don't look like they're up to par.

Christ, i got one sent and it was painfully small. I've sent seller v.angry letter as they didn't include any sizes on amazon nor that the keys are so crap that they sometimes need pressing 2/3 times to work. The other reviews on item show 4/5 star reviews.

O.O sorry mate. Yeah I figured those keyboards were a bit dodgy. It's really hard to find a good one of those. I think that KickStarter one is your best bet, but it is a bit pricey.
