As I mentioned in https://together.jolla.com/question/67461/request-kdeplasma-active-apps-for-jolla-tablet/ I expect a Jolla tablet ready for office users like me: Calligra, Kontact, etc. Plasma active rocks!

So it would be make Jolla tablet compatible with current docks and bluetooth keyboards... or look for a partnership in order to provide a case with keyboard... or something like that...

Thanks.

Since the tablet has Bluetooth, it should already be compatible with any standard Bluetooth keyboard, at least software-side. But it would still be very nice to have a dedicated keyboard hardware that also fits mechanically, e.g. with some clever snap-in mechanism...

Also, Bluetooth mouse support (i.e. displaying a cursor) would be nice when in "docked" mode.

i think the best option would be place 2 metal plate in the left tablet body side, so BT keyboard with magnets could automatically connect to the tablet... do not need to be mechanically due to magnets. This option is available in many tablets now.

Also the same option would be nice on the back of the tablet, 4 metal plates and then community can start to create magnet stands for the tablet. (paired with QI charging would be perfect)
