Spike Case Adds Foldaway Keyboard To iPhone [Kickstarter]

Turn your iPhone in to a BlackBerry

I’m all used to a iPad’s soothing keyboard, though when we go behind to my iPod Touch it drives me crazy. we skip a letters, we strike come in when we meant to strike shift, as well as we in all get angry. we would not, however, buy a phone with a set of keys ever again.

But we competence cruise a Spike, or some-more expected a Spike 2. Both have been iPhone cases with flip-open keyboards, though a Spike 2 improves upon a regulation by removing out of a proceed when we don’t need it.

The Spikes operate something a engineer calls “TypeSmart,” which uses conjunction plugs nor Bluetooth to connect. It’s not referred to upon a Kickstarter page, though this contingency meant which they have been only dire a on-screen keys below. Whatever gets a pursuit done.

This elementary proceed keeps a prices down. The Spike 1 will go for around $30-$35, as well as a Spike 2 for $55, identical to a prices for non-keyboard cases.

The Spike 2’s QWERTY is a handiest looking. It swings in from a hinge upon a right distance as well as clips over a bottom half of a screen, so we can fake we have been regulating a BlackBerry. When you’re not typing, we only flip it around a behind where it clips in as well as stays out of a way. As a set of keys is only 4mm thick, we don’t finish up with anything as well clunky.

I theory there have been still a little people around who need tough keys, as well as this resolution looks as great as any we have seen. The Kickstarter plan starts today.
