I was told to be wary of the Bluetooth version on keyboards for the Nook HD+. Does anyone know which Bluetooth version this is? 2 or 3?

I'm sorry, I don't know which version this is, but I bought this one when I was in California in July 2013 & it's already October and I haven't had to recharge it yet since my initial charging. Granted, I turn the Bluetooth & the keyboard off when I'm not using it, but I think that's still pretty good for a product. My husband also likes that the keyboard is magnetic & I can remove it from the case for convenience, ie. when my kids are watching a movie on my Nook or when I have very little lap space when taking sermon notes at church. Hope this helps!

NOOK HD+ only works with bluetooth 2.0. Anything higher/lower than 2.0 will not work with the NOOK. I found this out by purchasing a bluetooth 3.0 keyboard, I could pair it with the NOOK, but couldn't type anything with it. The keyboard worked perfectly with my Samsung phone and a different tablet, so I called NOOK support and found out it will only work with bluetooth 2.0. I'm assuming this Poetic keyboard is BT2.0 from all of the reviews from users with NOOK HD+. Hope this is helpful!

Sorry, I can't answer that. I have not used blue tooth yet. I do like the Poetic Keybook. Particularly because the keyboard is easily removed.

Wary for what reason? I honestly don't know what version it is or how exactly to check, but I am curious about 'wary'. If I discover how to check or the spec sheet, I will edit this to reflect that.

I don't have a nook but it should fit yours. The fit was not the issue. It was the connector cord that allows the keyboard to work. Hope that helps. Good luck!

Yes. And the apps you bought for your phone can be added to your Nook HD +. I love mine.

if you say a Hail Mary, cross yourself, turn around 3 times, throw salt over your shoulder, and hold your mouth just right. My Microsoft Bluetooth mouse works with my Nook HD+ all the time, with my droid sometimes with some fanageling, and maybe with a Windows 8 notebook, My HDE mouse works great with the Win 8 machine. Using my Anker Bluetooth keyboard with either of them affects the puter's ability to pair with the mouse, or with the keyboard. Usually can unpair and then connect again. The land of Bluetooth remains a largely unexplored wilderness; a jungle full of bugs.

In fact this specific product does not work with Nook HD +, neither work with ipad 4th gen with ios7.I have tried repeatedly with those particular devices - does not work! Works with MS Surface Pro with windows pro 8.1 (full fledged desktop OS on tablet PC). Tested - works perfectly with any bluetooth enabled laptop - in my case MacBook Pro 2012 running different OS systems: Mac OS X Mountain Lion or Mavericks; Windows 7, Windows 8, Linux Mint 14. What I'm writng is not a presumtion but is a personal experience.

I don't know much about the Nook. The keyboard has a connector that fits in where you charge it. If that is a standard USB port it should work.But if you use the same kind of charger as a droid cell phone for your tablet, you will need a usb to mini adapter it only cost anywhere from 85 cents to 4 dollars. If you order one from Amazon make sure it's not coming from China because it will take about a month to get it. I tried looking for one in my home town to no avail. I got one from ebay for 2 dollars with shipping. It really works well I"ve had mine for about 6 months. You can't beat it for the price. I compared it to my sister's bluetooth key board. I liked it better because the bluetooth got confused when other devices were around and wanted to connect to them. I love my key board!!!!!I give them a bad review because I wanted them to send a free adapter. I hope this helps Susan Duncan

As far as I know, the HD version of the Nook is a newer (not necessarily the latest version) of the nook. It has complete wifi access to various apps and the web and the internet. I think technically it is considered a tablet (as the name indicates) and not just an ereader.

Yes I have the nookhd and it works great I also have a iPad mini I don't use either without it. I bought this for my friend who has an iPad and she uses it all the time. I just love it great for reading, I just set it in my lap it's great for work, games and reading.

Yes. Bluetooth support is included in NOOK HD and NOOK HD+ to pair with essential accessories, including keyboards and speakers.

Well, crap. I bought it for my Nextbook Premium 7 and NOW I see it won't support an external keyboard. Anyone know a way around this?

Well I don't know what went wrong. After the Nook sees you keyboard you have to pair it and the status should be connected.Before you can start typing you have to approximy point at the place were you want to start typing. With the direction keys you can exactly go to the place were you want to be.You can also use a bluetooth mouse for the pricise pointing that works great.Hope that this helps you. As the bluetooth keyboard is on on my Nook the screen keyboard does not appear.

I bought the HDE one and it works to an extent (the delete and Caps lock keys do not work) with my ROOTED Nook Color. I do not think that the keyboard would work without the Nook Color being rooted because you have to be able to turn on USB host mode using the nook tweaks app from the android market.

Dear D. Porter, Hello, this is Yasuhiro, from USER SIDE. Thank you for inquirng us with regards to the HHKB. Unfortunately, PFU only makes USB version. And as long as I know, they don't release a Bluetooth version HHKB so far. If you have any further questions, please let me know anytime! Best regards, Yasuhiro Gotoda USER SIDE

It pairs via Bluetooth, not cable. The cable is to charge the keyboard battery. The directions have instructions on how to put the keyboard into pairing mode and the nook has a section in its options for Bluetooth pairing.

I believe it's specific to the Nook HD+ tablet. I would assume other tablets would have their volume and or power buttons in different locations.

True, Google Play allows the Nook HD+ to partial act as an Android. I like having it become a complete Android tablet at times, hence I bought the AFN micro SDHC. It only matters if you want to go beyond what the Nook can do. I often return to the Nook after taking out the AFN micro SDHC. It works fine either way. Versatility is the name of the game.

If it is new, I would send it back! Barnes and Noble has stopped selling the Nook Tablet, they're only selling the HD and HD+. So I would return your tablet and invest in an HD.
