I miss some of the keys a bit, e.g. PgUp/PgDn, and the Fn-Up/Down alternative doesn't work on a N800. I also admit that I cannot figure out how to turn it off. The power button always turns it on. When I want to use the virtual keyboard, I have to disconnect the Apple one from the Nokia's Bluetooth statusbar applet. FWIW connecting the two back together is unexpecedly easy: just start typing and the keyboard will reconnect *without losing any of the keystrokes*. Brilliant.
