I just upgraded from an Axim X50v to an HTC Advantage. Of course I want to use as many of my Axim accessories as possible - two of which are ThinkOutside's Travel Mouse and Universal Bluetooth Keyboard. The manufacturer's website states that no driver is available yet. The Axim X51v uses the same CPU as the Advantage, so I downloaded and installed the latest Axim drivers. My old mouse and keyboard worked perfectly!

I upgraded the Advantage's firmware to resolve a known power handling issue. The power issue went away, but now the mouse/keyboard driver doesn't recognize the bluetooth stack. I called IGo (formerly ThinkOutside). They said they have no idea when they will be able to release an updated driver.

Has anyone found a hack or some other workaround to get these two popular devices to work with the Advantate?

there is a program called bluemouse from Teksoft that should allow you to use any bluetooth mouse (i would imagine that the think outside mouse would work) but as of yet there is no way to use both the keyboard and the mouse at the same time. (this should be coming in a future release though)

WOW! I'm awaiting the HTC Shift....but I'd try bluemouse too.
