[nabs-l] Using a bluetooth keyboard with an iPHone [Was: Re:Question about IPhone through Verizon]

[jonathan franks]

I have synched the logitech bluetooth keyboard to my ipod touch and my
iphone 4s, it works rather well, I still have a little trouble with
accuracy, since I use a bigger keyboard for my pc, and I am not sure
what all the buttons are with the logitech keyboard, since I use a pc
board. But it works rather well for those whom are looking to use a
bluetooth keyboard.
