Thanks for posting this. Helps the rest of us to be cautious! I just got my Note2 today from Onyx and it seems to work just fine with my Bluetooth keyboard. I use a Lenovo Thinkpad Keyboard 2 (model EBK-209A) which works really well with this device.

These are about 120$ new but you can pick them up cheap secondhand for more like 20 bucks on fleabay. They are usually ex corporate, mine was pretty much unused. A really nice typing experience and you also have a mouse pointer built in, so your eReader becomes a eInk laptop when you rest it in the top of the keyboard. Also because these keyboards are ancient, more likely to be compatible with just about anything you try them with. You might be able to source a Spanish one from a latin american country on the cheap... or from spain.. lenovo are good at that kind of thing!

Good luck!
