    Hi!

    My friend bought a vivotab smart yesterday, and now he wants a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to it. The strange thing is that they told him in the shop that it only worked with official products from Asus. I think this sounds very strange since it is a full windows 8 device, buy I just wanted to check this here first so that I don't tell him that it works, and then it doesn't ;)

    That does sound odd. I would think that it would work with any Bluetooth device but I don't have one. Being a company like Asus I can't imagine it would require Asus products.

    Shop assistants are full of it! The tablet supports standard Bluetooth input device protocols, so will work with pretty much any Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I have the ASUS TranSleeve keyboard, but I also use the tablet with a Microsoft Wedge Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard/trackpad thing I've got, and also a little portable Bluetooth mini keyboard that I originally bought for my media center. All work absolutely fine with the VivoTab.

    The unit will work with any standard bluetooth keyboard/mouse.
