The point is it's not some futuristic feature that is difficult to include. Like copy and paste, working bluetooth is one of the basic things that many people require in a phone.]]>Dec 31st 2008 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/
Would I like copy & paste? I suppose, though I've managed to live without it for 18 months.

But to say it's a basic thing that people require is wrong. 10M people feel differently.]]>Dec 31st 2008 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 11:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 11:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/
It really surprises me that Apple doesn't have Bluetooth profiles for the iPhone for keyboards. The more I learn about this device, the less and less I want one. Don't get me wrong, the interface is amazing and solid, however lack of Bluetooth profiles, no copy/paste, the locked down nature, no multitasking, etc, really makes me want to vomit.. I am an OSX user, but the more I hear about Apple pulling stunts like this, the more and more I start to dislike them. Let's see what Android can do!]]>Dec 31st 2008 12:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 12:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 10:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 1:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 2:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/I hope he's able to make a usable product out of this. Being able to take a regular (not unlocked nor jail-broken) iPhone or iPod-Touch, and attach a BT device like this one ... or a tiny BT keyboard, or even a direct attached thumb keyboard, would just about make the iPhone a reasonable product for me. Esp. if they're going to start making tethering available for the iPhone.

Ideal for me would be a sleeve that has a physical thumb keyboard on it ... especially if it has the HTC Universal type "convertible laptop/tablet" hinge on it... and a keyboard layout and feel that is like the G1.

Combine that attachment for the iPhone, a tetherable iPhone, the rumored super-sized iPod-Touch (also with external keyboard capability, esp. with a comparable attachable keyboard for a convertible-tablet form factor), and I'd be firmly back in Apple's fold.]]>Dec 31st 2008 4:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 4:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/
I have been doing the same thing for over five years with my HP iPaq and a Targus Bluetooth foldable portable keyboard that I think I paid $50 for. It has worked great since the HP has Mobile Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook. Just because you can do this today with an iPhone or iPod does not make it the newest, greatest thing in the world...show me something new and special, not five years old!]]>Dec 31st 2008 8:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/Dec 31st 2008 8:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/31/diy-external-iphone-keyboards-get-a-tad-more-practical/http://www.milanorosa.com will grant your wish.

I don't know what to say... I'm absolutely FLOORED. I hired them to hack into my ex's Yahoo email. After about a week I became very skeptical. "OK, this guy's just making fake guestbook entries and collecting cash...". I emailed them asking if this was the case, he kindly responded that he was working on it. Next day, a screenshot. Not a doctored screenshot, because I remember what the inbox looks like and all the folders in it. No, it was real, with real emails from me. I was still skeptical, thinking, "OK, maybe he has some program that can do that, but can it really get passwords, can he hack Yahoo email?" I paid, in reality it is not a lot of money in the end. The password even made me skeptical, it was so simple. Certainly it's possible, I've researched it, but could this guy really be who he says he is? But low and behold, it's the real one. I'm shocked from my doubt. This guy Active Hackers is the real thing. I'm still in shock. Thanks man, I can't thank you enough. My heart can breathe a little better, now.

That is what of how to hack a password, hire them http://www.milanorosa.com if you want to know how to get into someone's Yahoo account. They provide the easy way to hack yahoo and easy way to hack msn messenger.
