Apple Testing iPhones with Physical Keyboards?

[tbohlsennswssrg]

I say...

If they make an iPhone Nano (2.8" screen), how could they possible have room to type anything.

So in conclusion, an iPhone Nano with a "physical" keyboard would a grand idea and give customers more of a choice!

I call this thread a whole load of Bulls**t, you know SJ hates physical keyboards.

Everyone is forgetting about apples 'touch feedback' patents!! What about having the physical surface of the touch screen slightly bump up where buttons are on the screen using piezoelectric materials...... if they were clever enough, they could even replicate the "click" press of the key.... forget slideouts unless they give us a dual screen........ hmmmmmm iPhone DS...........

More like 5 years early, since it still isn't coming any time soon.

I dont think the iPhone needs a physical keyboard. Its almost like they are selling out. Their idea with the iPhone were so original. I wouldn't mind a haptic keyboard in the future. Maybe in the iPhone nano?

Original? You mean touch keyboards didn't exist before the iphone?

Please, let this be true. I have no problems with a [jailbtroken]iPhone, but I hate touch keyboards, call me old fashion, whatever. I hate the fact that all companies are now releasing touch only phones. I NEED a qwerty keyboard please! <3
