The trick is to pair in "PC Mode". That is, hold the keys V, A, and R while turning on the keyboard. This will allow you to pair, but unfortunately, almost all of the Android-specific keys will not work as expected or won't work at all. For example, Home acts like a PC keyboard for Home (moving to the beginning of the line), rather than going to the homescreen; the multimedia keys do nothing; etc.
My brother has the Acer Bluetooth Keyboard and that one worked just fine with my tablet, including all of the Android-specific keys.
*** If anyone has any fixes for this, please share! ***

On to the review of the keyboard itself:
Aside from that issue, this keyboard is actually pretty great. It's very thin, light, has a small footprint, and works very well. Typing on it is a joy paired to my Evo View 4G and I can bang out a long email with ease and comfort.
A BIG plus for me also is that it uses AA batteries, so it never ever has to be plugged to charge (for example, if it had an internal battery). I have rechargeable AA's, so I can swap them out, recharge, and swap again when necessary.
That being said, I have owned this keyboard for 5 weeks so far and have yet to change the batteries. Battery life seems to be pretty great. I don't consider myself a "heavy" user, but I have had it paired to my tablet for multiple sessions of 6+ hours at a time. And I have never experienced the keyboard disconnecting on me, even if I haven't touched the keyboard or tablet for 30+ minutes.
I got this tablet used from the Amazon Marketplace to save $10 or so and I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase. Great price for a great keyboard, especially used. The only reason it gets 4 stars is because of the pairing issue mentioned above. Again, if anyone knows of a solution, please post, and then this keyboard will get a perfect 5 stars!
UPDATE 1/31/14
Another work-around I have found for wifi/bluetooth interference issues (laggy keys, sticking keys), when you are using a tablet on the go: Connect to wifi on your phone, then tether your tablet to your phone using bluetooth. Turn off wifi completely on your tablet. This made a big difference. 5G wifi, as mentioned before, fixes the problem as well. (how did "they" create two wireless standards that interfere with eachother?! Crazy!)
Once you get the keyboard connected without wifi interference, it's fantastic. I wish there was a similar one with a numeric keypad attached. And a case. A good travel case would be nice.

I'm using it with a Motorola Razr Maxx phone. The phone has a Seidio Active case with a kickstand Seidio CSK3MTRMK-BK ACTIVE with Metal Kickstand for Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX - 1 Pack - Retail Packaging - Black . The kickstand has until now been a fairly useless feature for me. But with the keyboard, it is absolutely perfect for editing documents in Google Drive (formerly Google Docs). The special function keys are pretty predictable and seem to work well. I was thrilled to see that Alt+Tab makes it a breeze to switch between recent apps (ie between Drive, email, messaging, etc)- quicker and easier than from the touch screen. There are media keys which appear to control the built in google music app (I'd like to figure out how to get it to control Spotify or my preferred mp3 app, PowerAmp). I have thought a couple of times that I'd like to have a mouse or touch pad (I'm too cheap to pay double for the version with the slide out touch pad). I could probably easily use one of my Bluetooth mice, but I've realized that this channels my focus to exactly what I intended this for: writing. The "limitation" keeps me from being drawn to all of the other distractions which are ever-present on the web and in all of my various time-sucking apps. If I want full keyboard and mouse control over a UI, I might as well be sitting at my laptop. In that way, this gives me EXACTLY what I needed!

Pairing the keyboard with the Razr for the first time was a little troublesome. The factory default is supposed to pair with android devices, and you can switch to default HID settings to pair it to a computer. I was unable to pair to my phone (android 4.04) with the default settings. It kept telling me something about invalid passkey, but never gave me the opportunity to enter one. So I figured I'd try the keyboard with my laptop. To do that, you hold the V,A, and R keys while powering on to change to HID mode (N,E,W + Power to reset to default). But before trying it with my computer, I decided to try it with my phone in the default HID mode. What do you know? It Worked! Since then, no issues. Some have indicated flakey connectivity. I've had exactly one disconnect so far, and it was when I was moving from one part of my house to another, and I have numerous other Bluetooth devices. Remember, this is RF wireless. Interference happens.

This keyboard was bought to go with the Motorola Xoom,at the full price I would say it is over priced but at the knock down amazon price it gets 10/10.
