After reading your mail, I decided to have a go at this as well.  I have
a Nokia SU-8W bluetooth keyboard that I use with my Nokia 770 and N800,
and I've previously used this with a bluetooth adaptor on my PC. 
Getting it working on the Hx4700 was a bit tricky, but Google helped, as
did this Russian site:

I wrote the following notes as I experimented (comments are prefixed
with '#' and all commands were entered in a root shell).

--- BEGIN NOTES ---

# Load hci_uart (may not be necessary - 'reset=1' may also not be
needed)

modprobe hci_uart reset=1

# Attach bluetooth layer to the port

hciattach /dev/ttyS1 texas 115200

# In GPE, choose Bluetooth icon and select 'Switch radio on'
# Make the BT keyboard discoverable
# Choose Bluetooth icon and 'Devices'
# Note that the BT keyboard is listed, then do..

hidd --search

# hidd should find the keyboard and connect automatically.
# Input will be added and you should be able to type on the 
# keyboard.

--- END NOTES ---

I hope that this is useful!
