I have a Qwerty keyboard straight from the apple store that works 
well on my iPod.  Forget the phone, it's really expensive! lol

Apples BT keyboard works very well with the iPhone and the iPad.

Hello John,
Though there's always a fair bit of subjectivity to such an 
evaluation, you
seem to have struck upon some of the same points that have 
restrained me
from making the leap to using an iPhone or iPad in court 
situations. I
really like the accessibility features of IS devices, but I still 
find the
Apex's combination of Braille and a hardware keyboard to be the 
most elegant
solution at present. Apex support of USB drives and SDHC cards 
also make it
really simple to transfer documents from remote storage, so you 
can treat it
just like any other computer. They may not weigh much alone, but 
an iPad,
Braille display and keyboard add up to far more than the Apex, 
require
independent charging and are dependent on all components to work. 
And while
far from perfect, the Apex keyboard feels luxurious compared to a 
virtual
equivalent.
That's just my opinion and there's nothing to say it won't change 
tomorrow,
but that's how i see it for now.

Respectfully,
Aser Tolentino, Esq.

 So guys I think I have gotten enough information on what 
notetakers you
guys use. I think I will go with the Braillenote apex. Here are 
my reasons.
The I devices are in too parts. It's the device and the Braille 
display. I
need something that is one unit. Also the apex turns on faster 
and I like
that. The idevices are not as efficient either and I can't have 
that. Also a
notetaker would be less to carry and keep track of. It's also not 
very heavy
as a iPad and Braille display would be. Are these bad reasons? 
What do you
guys think?

 Thanks
