Bluetooth Keybaords... any using them?

[Tall Mike 2145]

I am curious to know how many of you folks here have paired a bt keyboard of some description to your Nexus 4.

Right now I have an Apple aluminum (or unibody, or whatever it's called) bt keyboard paired with my N4, and it actually works out really well. It's actually kind of cool to be able to type accented characters more easily on my Android phone than you can in Windows. Actually, it looks like Android basically uses the same shortcuts that Mac OS X does, which is very handy.

Haven't tried this but thought about getting one for texting during the day at my desk. Get a small form factor one and leave out next to the desktop one; could be quite handy! Just dock the phone and type away.

I saw some $30ish ones over at TigerDirect the other day. They're advertised as also being iPad-compatible. Actually, talking about accented characters, I find that that somewhat depends on the app you're running. I was texting someone at the time I typed the prior message, and I had no problems typing ess-tsets and umlauts and grave accents. But when I tried it in Chrome in the post above, it wouldn't take any of them. Not sure why, exactly.

My brother has a good Logitech one he uses with a Galaxy tab... I've used it on my gnex before it was kind of cool

+1 on the logitech for Android, works awesome. Plus the case doubles as a stand.
