I absolutely love the “one-touch-everything” convenience that SmartPhones offer, in particular the iPhone (as an ardent fan and proponent of their sleek aesthetics and user-friendly interface). Other than the battery-life issues (which really isn’t a new problem at all considering that the preceding iPods have the same inherent problem) if I have to point out one area where I’d most like to improve upon is the phone’s text-input keyboard feature.
For someone who works her full-sized Qwerty to the death on a daily basis, I often find myself in a rather compromised situation when I have to “finger” and “poke” email replies of decent lengths via the iPhone. I can imagine that it will be even more so if you happen to be blessed with unconventionally big, and clumsy fingertips that will send E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial into a flurry of envy.
I think we all secretly hope that the iPhone comes with a Transformer-like keyboard contraption that’s seamlessly concealed and retractable especially on one of those long journeys on the road where the familiar feel of the keyboard may just bring about some sense of comfort (at least for the fingers).
Where the earlier suggestion proves to be impractical (by most counts), the closest possible solution right now manifests itself in the form of DOXAL’s “Power4” Bluetooth Mini Keyboard; It is small and light (can be rolled up and tucked away), Bluetooth-enabled (equates to wireless) and its’ water and dust-proof (makes me wonder what other unlikely locations can one be using this cool little accessory).
Measuring a mere 280mm (L) X 85mm (W), the “Power4” Bluetooth Mini Keyboard is packed with the same wholesome goodness (and more) as the jumbo ones that we’ve grown so incredibly accustomed to. Below are more technical information on the “Power4” Bluetooth Mini Keyboard

When used together with “Dynamic8” Rotation Bracket for iPhone, replying to emails and serving up continuous threads to and fro on eBuddy is actually getting pretty comfortable and a little less straining on my right index finger.
