I paid £39 from Amazon UK, I see the proce here has risen to £43 but I have snce been told of people who have bought it for less than £18.  So shop around.
 
I can't recommend it yet though.  I have managed to get it to apir with my phone briefly but cannot seem to repeat this.  The instructions are not clear.  This is what I try to do:
 
1. turn on the phone.
2. unfold the keybopard
3. Press Control plus left function plus righr function on the keyboard to wake it up.
4. Go to the stowaway application on the phone and select enable BT
 
Then is getsdifficult.
 
The phone tells me a long registration code of some sort but I am not sure what I need to do with that.  After a bit, it offers me a text box for a pass key.
 
5. I enter a short series of digits, press enter
6. Hold down the left function key and enter the samedigits on the keyboard and press enter.
 
I have tried turning off the bluetooth security but still seem to be offered the pass key text box.
 
There also seems to be a lot of text apearing on the phone that is not read out by talks.  This is ptobably the really important stuff that would allow me to get the thing to work.
