iPhone Unnecessarily Hacked to Add Real Keyboard [IPhone]
Gizmodo — This guy's taken a jail-broken iPhone and hacked it by wiring it up to a genuine physical keyboard that's about as big as the phone itself. Yes... it's clever. But nononono: the beauty of the iPhone is its slender slippery sleekness, and I've found myself speeding up to darn fast text-entry rates using the virtual keyboard. This mod is like strapping a paddlewheel to a dolphin: bulky, old-fashioned and unnecessary. [Crunchgear] ...

Add a Real Keyboard to Your iPhone
Apple Eclectic — Personally I’ve never had a problem with the iPhone’s keyboard, but at times it seems like it’s just me and Steve who feel this way. If you simply can’t get along with the lack of physical keys, let me dangle the above video tantalisingly in front of you. ...

Hacker Attaches Physical Keyboard to iPhone
Wired: Gadget Lab — If Apple isn't going to fix all the stuff that bugs you about the iPhone, you might as well hack and mod it to be better, right? A hacker (in the video above) took that idea to the extreme and attached a physical QWERTY keyboard to his Jailbroken iPhone. Early adopters of the handset often complain about its virtual keyboard, but those concerns seem to fade away as people get a feel for it. I personally don't mind it anymore. What I really want is for Apple to let the damn keyboard flip into landscape mode for typing e-mails, notes, text ...

Video fortells future iPhone role
9 to 5 Mac - Apple Intelligence — What you see here is a fairly interesting video (btw, thanks Crunkgear). Someone has hacked a real keyboard onto an iPhone. Cool right? Thing is, this is a glimpse of the future. Not the Macworld '09 future, more like the WWDC '09 type of future. The iPhone docking plug will kind of take a reverse role where it will now connect to peripherals whereas before the iPhone was the peripheral. You'll plug in a connector (or UWB if you are into that type of thing) into a monitor.   Keyboard/Trackpad/Internet of course will all be wireless.   Yes, the iPhone is your computer.  ...
