Remapping Enter alone won't help you with VKBD popping up when input 
field is activated. You can switch off virtual keyboard completely by

$ maemo-gtk-im-switch xim

when you connect your keyboard and later enable it again by

$ maemo-gtk-im-switch osso-input-method

when you disconnect it. Bluetooth plugin calls this automatically and 
btkbd used with kbdd does it too.
