The eariler mentioned OS update (2.6.5.3) for the Windows Mobile 2003 powered Orange SPV E200 SmartPhone did disable the external add-on keyboard (at least for Switzerland). An updated driver has just been published via the Orange update service that is integrated with the phone's OS.

My favorite part of the updated OS so far is that now the SPV E200 works as modem via Bluetooth for Windows Mobile 2003 based Pocket PCs.

...besides the extended battery life.

...and the beautiful, new clear-type fonts.

...and the fact, that my generic Bluetoot-headset now always connects to the phone without any problems.
