Default [Q] Bluetooth keyboard

I have connected a Apple bluetooth keyboard to my Tab. That together with a small plastic stand works very fine.

but I am not able to use the local language charachters on the keyboard. Just gives me /;- when I click the Norwegian local chars ØÆÅ.

Anybody knows how this work in Android ? I have selected Norwegian layout on both input (keyboard) and device.

Is it the Bluetooth driver that controls this things ?

Yes, I want the Samsung keyboard also, but it doesn't appear to be available in the states yet.

I connected my Apple Magic Mouse to my Tab this evening and i was really impressed by it. I may go out and buy the Apple keyboard to go along with it just for the hell of it...

Has anyone been able to connect a BT keyboard to the Verizon Tab? I can pair my Think Outside keyboard, but it doesn't connect.

I believe the BT profiles for headsets and HID aren't installed. Is there a way to add them?
