But at this URL --
http://www.boxwave.com/kobo-ereader-...ies/bwdd/zgwf/ -- I found an external Bluetooth keyboard with which the Bluetooth-equipped Kobo Original is (or is at least represented to be by the keyboard's manufacturer) compatible; it is the Original, please note, that is here clearly pictured.
My questions were premised on my presumption that, once I received this keyboard I'd ordered, I'd be able to, with it, in tandem with the Kobo Original, put to use the information you'd so generously provided me.
Is there some reason to doubt or know that this external keyboard, despite its manufacturer's representation, will not actually work with the Kobo Original?
(FYI: It's not as if the manufacturer is just representing its keyboard to be compatible with every Kobo; in fact, it represents the keyboard is compatible only with the Kobo Aura One and the Original at the following URL:

If so, my apologies for bringing you along on my ill-informed wild-goose chase
