iPhone Keyboard ModSome people like the idea of a touchscreen keyboard, while others prefer to have the touchy feeling of typing on a built-in keyboard. You can now have both.

Well, some electrical engineering whiz-kid has just modded his iPhone (other sites are reporting it as the iPhone 3G, I don’t think so) together and fixed an external keyboard which looked like it came from those one of those Psion devices. Add in another little bit of programming whiz, and the results looked quite promising, if your device is jailbroken, that is. More pictures and a video after the break.

Isn’t that great? Now, if only Apple would allow us Bluetooth on the iPhone. And I wonder if it will work on the iPod touch. Let’s hope this develops further. I’d love to see what are the key ‘ingredients’ to get this working. Who knows someday we’ll see this being sold at every Apple accessories store? Or am I dreaming? :)
