Wireless Keyboard SMT 5600

Hello, I've had my SMT 5600 since it first came out and it is the best phone I've ever owned. The only think I dislike is that it doesn't have a keypad like my Nokia 3300 did. I've been looking for a decent wireless keyboard but can't find any that say they are compatible with my 5600. I've also seen IRDA and BT keyboards and not sure which would best. I would love to find either a QWERTY keyboard or a foldable one but I've seen them run close to $150. Any insight into the subject of wireless keyboards is greatly appreciated, as you can probably tell I'm new to this but I have done a search but with no results.

The Think Outside Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard has details at www.thinkoutside.com but I haven't called to confirm that it works with the SMT 5600.

Also, check out http://www.pocketnow.com/index.php?...=reviews&id=526
for a review on the Freedom keyboard from overseas. I emailed them, and received a reply from Iris Ho saying that they were hoping to get it introduced into the chain stores before Christmas.

I'm looking for solution, too - any feedback on your quest would be valuable!

Last I checked, Thinkoutside (maker of the StowAway keyboards) didn't have drivers for any of their products and the 5600. I have the InfrRed keyboard that works with my iPaq and can't wait for it to work with my 5600.

According to Freedom Input's website they provide one Bluetooth and one IR keyboard. Which would everybody recommend? I would think Bluetooth but for the price difference would I be wrong with going with IR? I don't know the pros or cons of either so any input is helpful. Thanx again.
