" ... This isn't too difficult to do (it's practically routine for any but a small number of well-supported devices in ST), but it's something to be aware of if you're not comfortable doing that. ... I did not have any problems pairing, and, unlike others, it seems to work reliably when the button is pressed (note if you're trying this out before installing, the button doesn't always press down if you're holding it ...
