Where is the external keyboard for the iPhone?
I won’t need a laptop if the iPhone works with a bluetooth keyboard or even with a keyboard with a iPod dock built in. I know somebody has to be working on this, especially now that there is all kinds of excitement for the iPhone SDK.
BTW, I am getting a iPhone 3G when my Blackberry dies.
Inquiring minds: Do you really need it?
Me: Yes, yes, yes. Please believe me.
Here is how it stands, I either get a laptop or an iPhone so I can work on the road. My G5 is getting old so I rather spend money on a new desktop instead of a laptop as desktops are generally better for editing and last so many more years. An iPhone with a keyboard will not let me edit but I can write which is the biggest reason why I need a mobile device. See, doesn’t that make perfect sense?
Inquiring minds: You going to write on that small screen?
Me: Yes, yes, yes. Why don’t you believe me?

Let me know if you find an external keyboard. My Blackberry is starting to show it’s age, and I might just buy an iphone 3G if an external keyboard of some type is available.
If not, I may wait to see what comes of other projects: OpenMoko, Google’s project, or the BlackBerry Thunder…I’m not sure if The Steve is the one who is holding back an external keyboard or what - doesn’t seem like a hard problem to solve, if Apple allows it to be solved. Of course, many users apparently DO view it as a problem, in spite of the dogma about not needing an external keyboard, which you and I know both know is hogwash.
