You may have seen our previous coverage of the Spike Kickstart project from SoloMatrix which aims at giving your iPhone (4 or 4S) a physical keyboard like you can find on Blackberry phones. The concept is appealing to pretty much anyone who does a fair amount of typing – email and texting come to mind, but note-taking and other such activities are also legitimate reasons for wanting a faster way to input text.
I met the inventor of the Spike 1 and Spike 2 keyboards earlier today (Robert Solomon), and I was given the opportunity to test drive a prototype of the Spike 1, and look at a Spike 2 prototype. If you are not familiar with those models, the difference is that Spike 2 has a more convenient way to get rid of the keyboard, when not in use.
