Cingular Go Phone: Bluetooth Foldable Keyboard for iPad/Smartphone/ PDA/ PPC/ Windows 7/Vista/XP Review

When I first opened the package(it is a model MP-0118) and found that there were no instructions other than a small CDROM that wouldn't work in a slot loading macintosh; I thought this shouldn't be so bad. The previous reviewer noted that the keyboard turns on and connects when you open it. This is not really the case (at least with mine and my iPhone 3GS with iOS 4), first you have to pair it.

After a bit of searching I learned that there is a small button in the battery compartment that says CONN, press this with a pen and then it will connect to your iPhone (IOS4), iPad, Macintosh or windows machine. Once you get it paired (and don't worry when entering the pairing code.. the keyboard is in 'num lock' mode when pairing.. just hit the numbers and the enter key)

Next time you open the keyboard to use it. Hold down the CMD (lower left) and FIND (upper right) for 10 seconds, the LED on the keyboard will flash and the iPhone will discover the device automatically. I didn't get it to discover the keyboard upon opening it like the previous reviewer.

Now I can't go anywhere without the keyboard and my iPhone! Very compact, yet comfortable (a little tight but way better than thumb typing emails).
