[nabs-l] Bluetooth Keyboard for iPhone 5

Hi,

It really depends on what type of bluetooth keyboard you want. The
Apple keyboard is awesome, but it is the size of a typical keyboard.
It looks like a laptop keyboard. I personally love laptop keyboards
since the rows on desktop keyboards elevate and I have small fingers,
but it isn't portable.

I mentioned it the other day, but if you want something portable, I
think the one sold by A T Guys is great. It fits into my pocket with
my phone, has raised bumps on the F and the J, and the keys themselves
are discernable unlike many other small bluetooth keyboards that have
awkwardly sized keys and not enough tactile differentiation between
them. With shipping, I think that keyboard is $52, and you can find it
if you go to www.atguys.com.

Their bluetooth keyboard is my third, after I tried a couple of cheap
ones from Amazon. I tried to adapt them but my high marks made out of
glue and nail polish fell off because of either rubber keys or me
using it a lot. And those keyboards didn't last and didn't fit as
nicely into my pocket. So I'd say that spending $50 or $60 is pretty
reasonable for a good bluetooth keyboard.

I have also seen a cool normal-sized keyboard that is made of silicon
and that rolls up for easy fitting into a purse, but I don't know
where you could buy this; I just met a friend who had one.
