Could a Desktop BT Keyboard Control an X50v?

Could the Bluetooth keyboard I purchase for my desktop allow me to type on my X50v?

Would enough keys work to allow basic functions to be carried out?

What keyboards are compatible with the X50v? Is Bluetooth Bluetooth? Does a keyboard have to have drivers specific to the X50v? Would one of the Microsoft Bluetooth keyboards have those drivers?

Me, clueless? Me???

Thanks.

Bluetooth is always compatible with Bluetooth, except when it isn't. ;)

and in this case it isnt, Well as far as know...

it has not been confirmed one way or the other,

BUT Most desktop BT keyboards use a HID profile,which is not present on our Axims.

BUT, who knows if it'll work with the Think Outsides bt driver.. or some other BT keyboard driver for pocket pc's..

It might well work, but you need to try it. perhaps a friend or a quick setup in a compusa might help.
