      That just looks like a normal wireless keyboard, not something you can use while standing in a bus tho.

          Still the same problem. There are lots of small wireless keyboards, you can probably get one like that for $10 (you could 10 years ago). Still can’t use it in a pinch without a decent surface.

          A had a few keyboards…

          Compare to this, this or this which you just hold in the hand like a normal phone.

              Yes, it looks truly crap tho. I hear there’s some issue regarding BlackBerry patents, but a 3-row keyboard is pretty worthless. Combined with all its other issues, it wasn’t enough even for me to get interested.

              Speaking of which, fuck dead companies keeping patents.

                  Fun fact, there was a qwerty keypad phone in India sold not long ago, running KaiOS. Ultra cheap too, like under $30 range I think, but exclusive to one cell provider and not exported.

                  It looked good. Shows that it’s doable. I don’t understand why don’t those noname basement dwellers cobble up something like it. There’s hundreds of phone models made every year and the Chinese companies of all kinds are able to make or copy anything. Super easy sell if you ask me, in the market where it’s h hard to stand out.
