Ladies and gentlemen, your iPhone 4 now has a slide-out keyboard. Sort of. If you’ve been an iPhone detractor because of its lack of a physical keyboard, you may now rest, all thanks to Naztech’s Ultra-thin Sliding Bluetooth Keyboard for iPhone 4.
The keyboard “easily pairs over Bluetooth using wireless connectivity and features a slide-out QWERTY keyboard that includes Search and Home buttons. It’s powered by a lithium rechargeable battery and is charged via its Mini-USB port.”
You can turn it on and off independently to help conserve battery power, and it works on any iPhone 4 (Verizon or AT&T).
The Naztech Bluetooth Keyboard for iPhone 4 is available from Hypercel for just $79.99, though it currently shows as “Out of Stock” with no indication of when shipping may occur.
Naztech makes a variety of mobile electronic accessories including car chargers and cases (also available from Hypercel). Other Bluetooth keyboards for you iPhone are out there, though Naztech’s seems to be the most elegant solution.
Would you pay an extra $79.99 to add a slide-out keyboard to your iPhone 4? Should the iPhone have a physical keyboard included? Let me know in the comments!
