Default iGo Bluetooth Keyboard
I have the iGo Ultra Slim Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard and can't use it with my Desire. I can pair it just fine, but after pairing I can't connect to it and use it as an input device.

Has anyone figured out how to use a BT keyboard with his Desire?

Hate to say this:
Search!

You have a HID Keyboard, byt you need a SIP Keyboard, like the Freedom Universal.
The you have to get a good BT driver.

What I find out :

HTC uses old bleutooth stack with its Sense UI and I failed to connect my ThinkOutside keyboard with several successful solutions for other android phone.

Now I am very happy typing with it on my Desire with the OpenDesire ROM. It recognizes it and connect with it straight away and even some of the function keys works (tho not yet for the task specific keys).

But have to give up Sense UI for that. But I find that it's pretty fast to just restore to another ROM with Sense and I can get best of both worlds.
