BlackBerry® PlayBook™

[Franksp2011]

I purchased a Blackberry Bluetooth Mini Keyboard.  I connected it and it works nicely.  I then connected my Blackberry Curve and again no problems.  Then i enabled the Blackberry Bridge so my Blackberry Emails can be seen on my Playbook.  Well as soon as I got an email the KB disconnected.

This happens now all the time.

I turn off the KB on and off and it connects and then poof disconnects all of a suddden.

Are these 2 not compatable with each other?

Hey Franksp2011,

Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.

I have tested this and was unable to reproduce this issue, we would suggest contacting our BlackBerry PlayBook support team for further investigation into this matter:

bluetooth protocols are normally one device is pair at a time (will stand corrected if wrong)

as for blackberry bluetooth is slightly non standard, this should still be the case

A simpler solution to re-establish a connection when the mini keyboard is disconnected is to tap the keyboard's [ctrl] key..  That re-establishes contact.  You get a viusual confirmation of the process when the LED on the keyboard flashes blue while it re-establishes the connection.

This is perhaps not a solution but a lot less of a pain than turning off the keyboard, turning it on again and then waiting and waiting for the keyboard and the PlayBook to pair again.
