20 Apple Typist Accessories

From Stand-Up Keypad Cases to Mini iPhone Keyboards

— March 5, 2011 — Tech
By this time next year, I'd expect to see the number of Apple typist accessories in this top list double. With the upcoming release of the iPad 2 and the ever-persistent rumors regarding the iPhone 5, it is only a matter of time before consumers are hit with a new wave of Apple-friendly keyboards.

Apple's insistence on keeping its iPad and iPhone keyboard-free has been a point of contention among consumers. I'll be the first to admit that the keyboards on both the iPhone and the iPad work brilliantly, but it still doesn't beat typing on a conventional keyboard.

Thankfully, designers have created tons of Apple typist accessories to please the masses. These Apple typist accessories range from iPad keyboard cases to iPhone keyboard attachments. If you love Apple products but hate typing without a keyboard, then you're definitely going to want to check this top list out.
