Indentured servitude is unconstitutional.

Yeah. It used to be "stuff that mattered." Now it's 75% shit.

The keyboard may, at first glance, look the same. It is not. A Typo keyboard is smaller, has more keys and functions as a case for an iPhone. The Blackberry is keyboard is larger, wider and most importantly is part of the phone. Would you still think it was a rip-off if it was bright blue instead of black?

This is not an Apple product. It is a very good accessory for an iPhone made by a small, start-up third party. Blackberry does not offer one nor do they intend to make anything remotely like it in the near future. They just don't want anyone else to do so. The keyboard may, at first glance, look the same.

Why? Because I'm stockpiling in the event that TYPO goes belly-up. Using a Typo-keyboard with my iPhone is the finest mobile phone experience available and I am loathe to go back to a glass keyboard. I had a death grip on my Blackberry but I switched to iPhone a few years ago for reasons too numerous to list. I tried a few keyboard cases for iPhone. Although not perfect, the Typo is by far the best of the lot. Using it allows me to have the whole iPhone screen visible. I can thumb type quickly and accurately and avoid iPhone autocorrect hell. I live in the most densely populated area of New York City, where everyone is in a hurry and good percentage of them are morons. People have asked about my phone with the keyboard but no one has ever confused it with a Blackberry. As previously posted, Blackberry could have come out with a similar keyboard bundled with BBM for iPhone and the most popular android devices years ago. Had they done so, they might just be making money now. This is a fine example of a moribund company reaching up from the grave to drag a really great product down with it.

I couldn't agree more. If Blackberry had come out with their own keyboard and bundled it with BBM five years ago, they'd be making money today.
