I've always worked in places where you needed to get a shell terminal for all work including email. Join the BBC Jan 1998 get my phone number and work provided phones: Nokia 5110 (original Mars bar phone), Nokia9000 (telnet/FTP/web 9600 8n1 serial support all for on-call support), 9110 (amazing form factor compared to the 9000), 9210 (colour symbian felt like a step back from the 9110), 9500 (camera, Wi-Fi, significantly better than the 9210), 9300i (significantly smaller than the 9500, but no camera & not as good battery life, but overall an amazing phone), E90 (or consumer/lame, ve

It's running pie? I assumed it would have Android 10. It seems that's only been out 2.5 months but still, it's releasing a version behind from the outset.

I paid for a Cosmo communicator significantly more than 4 months ago and I still see no device.

The Samsung Galaxy S Relay was the last good keyboarded android, so I didn't use that with this keyboard. Sorry actually I did as I tested before I got the pixel. But basically I wanted a top of the range phone (this was ~2 years ago) so I used the Google pixel (apparently htc). This is nothing more than basic BT HID I don't see why you'd have any problem with any keyboard unless there are some weird bespoke iPhone keyboards out there. It was actually pretty sweet for a while but the mechanism just grew too wobbly over a couple of months each time eventually being too risky to keep attac

What is really needed is a BT/WIFI->IrDA device which sits in range of your TV and STB devices, and is permanently plugged in so you don't lose it. You can continue to use your normal remote, and occasionally lose it (See also: https://www.thetileapp.com) then switch to the phone which can use a simple app which talks to the ir-blaster and works as you expect. Both my TV and STB (linux box with mythtv) acutally support network (wifi) protocols to control stuff so I'm fine anyway, but it would be nice to have control of arbitrary older IR devices. It would also be nice to have radio tra

$649 + sales tax + shipping is still way cheaper than £650 ($820). But TBH I think the price is completely justifiable. You're paying for research and dev into the nicest keyboard phone since the n950

Not that it's important but I missed out the 9110 which was an truly awesome improvement of the ugly brick of the 9000 and lasted for years as one of the best smartphones* available.

I used the Nokia 9000 in 1998 and I don't know if it would even go flat. After that the 9210 for a few years, then 9500. As the years went by, I then got the 9300(i) which IIRC was the 1st to open fully flat. I didn't do this much as it was easier to use when slightly angled. The n97 was awesome but I then got an n900 and loved how UNIXy it was but didn't like the flat slide out as much. I then got my precious n950 developer device, which I believe the F(X)tec Pro1 is based. The slight angle is definitely superior IMO. As time moved on and I got too busy with work to faff about compil

After my Galaxy S Relay got far too slow, I switched to a pixel1 and keyboard. I used the iphone keyboard in the image above, snipped off the edges and superglued to a stock thin pixel1 case. I then use "External Keyboard Helper" to map useful keys like Ctrl so I can use things easier via ssh. The mechanism doesn't last more than a couple months and I've grown tired of repairing them. I do have a spare 3rd keyboard (they're £6 each) but haven't gone through this process yet after the 2nd broke. I reluctantly started to use the on-screen keyboard but miss a fully integrated device.
