More review coming soon.

I have been using an iGo keyboard for 4 years. This keyboard is heavier and bulkier that the iGo Keyboard but, as a result, is also more substantial. I still don't like the fact that you have to have one of the on screen keyboards active to make the numbers work on the keyboard, which is the same for the iGo but I like that at least, you don't have to hold the shift key for the numbers as you do on the iGo. I also like that this one has an on-off switch. The one thing I really do not like is that the space between letters on the opposite side of the middle fold are too far apart and the right shift key is a stretch and not comfortable, and I have very large hands. The general performance is good.

I researched this keyboard to make sure it worked on the iPhone prior to ordering it. However, still no instructions on how to pair it on the freedom input website or in the instruction manual. I found the instructions on [...]. I finally have it paired with my iPhone 4 running 4.0 software and it works great. Most of the shortcut keys (like answering/ending calls, internet browsing, or launching mail applications) do not work with the iphone. I have been able to launch ipod and increase/decrease volume buttons with the keyboard so it definitely is limited. I wanted the keyboard just for the functionality of the keyboard so I am not too disheartened that the other keys do not function. However, I would give 5 stars if all the keys functioned as described and the website had pairing instructions. Maybe in the future.... Otherwise, it seems to be a sturdy, compact, portable keyboard which is exactly what I wanted.

Didn't work with my Macbook Pro, my Sprint Hero nor a Samsung Moment. The Mac kept going through the keyboard detection process everytime I touched a key. The Hero would work for about 2 minutes then the driver would crash. I had to uninstall/reinstall to get it working again (a reboot didn't fix it). On the Moment it just never connected (through the driver).
The keyboard itself is pretty good. It seems sturdy docking station for the phone fits easily into keyboard for storage and carrying case is sufficiently strong feel to it.
