Bluetooth Keyboard with TPT

[jdcalus]

I just bought a Verbatim Bluetooth keyboard and tried to get it to work with my TPT but I have had no luck. The keyboard and the TPT are connected via the Bluetooth sync and it shows up in the settings, but when I type none of the characters show up.

Has anyone gotten a Bluetooth keyboard to work with the TPT?

BTW, the same keyboard works with my IPad 2, so I know the keyboard is not defective.

The logitech android keyboard works fine and the kensington universal tablet case keyboard works well also.

Thanks for the response...

Does the logitech keyboard show up in the settings under Language & Input > Keyboard settings > Current input method?

Did you have to make any changes to any other setting on the TPT?

The only spot the Verbatim shows up is in the Wireless & Networks under Paired Devices.

Once paired,  I just hit connect on the Kensington and start typing.  It just works.  It never shows up under keyboards.  The logitech works the same way I think but is at the office and I can't test it right now.

I take it you have the Kensington Universal Keyboard folio, can you upload a pic of how you have the Thinkpad attached to it. I ordered this as a back up to the Lenovo one but I am still curious on those corner snap on thingys'.

Did you ever get the Verbatim to work.
