Maestro and keyboard and digital apps

Since Maestro has Bluetooth can a Bluetooth keyboard be married to it for digital apps?  And are Digital apps like PSK and JT65/9 being considered for waveform API.

    The advertising brochure is very scant with specifics but rife with superlatives. During the Hamvention, I inferred that not even a microphone nor speaker are supported with Bluetooth...yet. I get the feeling it will be going through growing pains just like the 6000.

    Although I think that Maestro is a nice idea and will sell to a good number of Flex 6000 users.  A good laptop can do the same functions.  But it is a choice.   I think that development time would be better spent on finishing the 6000 radios.  Things like further FDV development.  Built in DDUtil functionality, JT65/9, PSK, RTTY waveform apps.  I see mention of Windows free operation.  Maybe this is aimed at the crowd that is not computer literate.  That's OK, and I think this may be a good move on Flexes part.

    The answer to that same question asked last night at the Flex banquet is that they included the Bluetooth hardware but haven't yet decided how to use it. Maestro is a very new device. The examples shown at Dayton were hand made.

    Seems like a no-brainer to me what the applications should be.
