Review: Finally! A keyboard for the Kindle Fire

I was prepared to give the Belkin Portable Keyboard Case for Kindle Fire HD a bad review. My first attempts to connect the device to my tablet failed.  I followed the directions, but whenever I clicked "Bluetooth" on my Kindle, as the instruction booklet advises, I received a message that "no Bluetooth device was detected." I tried again . . . and again . . . and again. Finally, my Kindle detected the device. I turned the keyboard "on," pressed and held in the "Pair" button (which is not on the keypad but located under the "on" and "off" button), and voila - SUCCESS!This is a nice keyboard. Of course, if you're used to typing on a laptop, as I am, it takes a little time to adjust to typing on such a small keyboard. I have to hold my fingers closer together in order for them to fall on the appropriate keys. I'm sure I'll get used to it. Although I like my Kindle Fire HD, I was always hoping to find a keyboard to go with it. Having to touch the screen and type one finger at a time, which was the only way to do it without a keyboard, is a little frustrating. I still haven't used this keyboard as much as I hope to, and maybe I'll find something to complain about later, but for now I recommend it highly.Brian W. Fairbanks
