Typing on a virtual keyboard is actually a bad experience. We’ve accepted these bad keyboards because we have to in order to get the biggest screen possible on our phones. That’s why one of the best-selling accessories for the iPad is a keyboard, and why the new Microsoft Surface has two different keyboards available at launch.
Not everyone wishes a tablet, though, and really our phones are just as powerful as these tablets that are being made right now. I’m obviously not alone in this, because there’s a Kickstarter for a porable keyboard called Journo that offers a solution.
Journo is already over a quarter of the way to their $100,000 goal, and for as little as a $79 pledge to the Kickstarter you get your own Journo on launch day.
