I don't know how they got ahold of one so far ahead of us, but Geekzone got their hands on one of the new Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboards and have posted a review to boot! We had some questions about what advantages the Bluetooth keyboard would offer over IR or even "port connection" style keyboards. You'll have to be the judge as to whether they answer that question or not. Overall the Stowaway Bluetooth Keyboard brings a good combination of size, weight, functionality and the freedom of a cordless keyboard to the handheld world. Travellers and users who need to enter a fair amount of data on Pocket PC will be glad to use this tool. (Thanks for the link, freitasm!)
I can't imagine a touch-typist being able to deal easily with the lack of a number key row, both for the numbers and for their punctuation. On the good side, it looks like at least the keys are in the normal arrangement, with no funky vertical split like some of the other keyboards have.

I find the same with the IR keyboard. I'd settle for slightly wider if I could have that number row back. This BT model sure looks pretty closed, though.

PocketPC Club, a nice Dutch web site has posted an article that says ThinkOutside is going to release a BT little mouse for the Pocket PC. Talk about laptop replacement now, baby! http://www.pocketpc-club.nl/content.php?id=3104
There's a link to a video you don't want to miss of the mouse in action with an iPAQ.
I want one real bad for web surfing.
