Help BT Keyboard

[Bankswood]

Will any BT keyboard work with the Nook Color? I'm running CM7

I wouldn't count on it.

OK let me rephrase the question. Does anyone have a suggestion on BT keyboards that do work

Here's my post on my tested BT peripherals from XDA:

DEVICE TYPE: Mouse
DEVICE MODEL NUMBER AND NAME: Logitech Mx1000 Laser
PAIRS: Yes
CONNECTS: Yes
RANGE: 6-12 inches
FUNTIONALITY: Works well, most of the buttons are mapped to a useful function. Left click is what you'd expect, right click is 'back'. The back button on the mouse is the 'home' button, and the forward button on the mouse selects whatever's highlighted. Scroll wheel works as expected, sort of... Left-clicking on the screen and moving the cursor can be used to activate gestures.
LIMITATIONS AND BUGS: Distance and interference increases pointer lag
WORKAROUNDS: None
REQUIRED APPS: CM7.1 RC
COMPATIBLE APPS: everything, Cm7.1 displays a traditional mouse pointer immediately after link.
CM7 version: found the feature in CM7 Nightly 93 and use it now in 7.1 RC.
KERNEL: Default CM7 kernel, Dalingrin's 6/9 6/13 6/18 6/30 kernels

DEVICE TYPE: Keyboard
DEVICE MODEL NUMBER AND NAME: Logitech Mx5000
PAIRS: Yes
CONNECTS: Yes
RANGE: 1-2 feet
FUNTIONALITY: Works well,great for typing comfortably with Nook on a stand.
LIMITATIONS AND BUGS: keyboard has many features that are obviously not supported.
WORKAROUNDS: None
REQUIRED APPS: CM7.1 RC
COMPATIBLE APPS: everything with text input
CM7 version: found the feature in CM7 Nightly 93 and use it now in 7.1 RC.
KERNEL: Default CM7 kernel, Dalingrin's 6/9 6/13 6/18 6/30 kernels

DEVICE TYPE: Cell Phone
DEVICE MODEL NUMBER AND NAME: LG Optimus M
PAIRS: Yes
CONNECTS: No
RANGE: Unknown
FUNTIONALITY: Unknown
LIMITATIONS AND BUGS: Doesn't seem to detect any supported BT profiles, haven't tried tethering with 3rd party apps, or sending files through a file manager.
WORKAROUNDS: None
REQUIRED APPS: Unknown
COMPATIBLE APPS: Unknown

Anybody know if you can use your android phone as a keyboard and mouse with the NC? I know they have apps on the market that will let you do this with a computer but i have yet to see anything thats lets you control your tablet from your phone.
