Will the TouchPad be able to connect with other BT keyboards (say, Apple ones), do we know?

We won't know until the release comes around unfortunately.

I suspect that will (but that's only a suspicion). I think it would odd for HP to set up a new "standard" for keyboards, plus the price is not that far different from other branded BT keyboards.

That said, they would be smart to make the TP keyboad work better with the TP than others. To that end, I've heard there are WebOS dedicated buttons on the TP keyboard. All of that leads me to believe that others will work, just not as well.

We'll know for sure soon though, huh?
