dock with keyboard ? or some kind of detachable keyboard? - myTouch 4G Accessories

I have been thinking for a long time about how phone manufacturers instead of making a phone with a keyboard which adds extra bulk -why dont they just make a thin all screen phone then include an accessory or attachment keyboard of some sort...
so this is where I applied that to the MT4G...I was wondering if I could use anything as such a device or is there an actual device made for this already?...thanks very much in advance for your comments...

They have those, but they are kind big and bulky...

Because we dont wanna look like total NERDS...

haha, yea that is understandable, but I was referring to smaller keyboards more fitting to the size of the phone...

There are small portable bluetooth keyboards that may or may not work out there. At least one manufacturer advertises android compatability and supplies drivers. No idea if it works on this particular device though.
It's still maybe the size of a netbook keyboard but folds in half.

This is completely unrelated to the keyboard but, do you still need that Sprint Hotspot since your phone is rooted and you can tether from that?

I looked at one the other day that went onto the PS3 Controller.. Im sure they can make one to fit the phone..

I remember my friend had a Verizon phone from LG that was touch screen that had a keyboard he could plug into a dock on the side and actually folded over the screen like a case. It came with the phone and the phone worked with or without the keyboard. It thought this was a awesome idea it would be cool if this idea would have caught on but his phone was the only one I saw like this.

TP2 keyboard vs TP1 Keyboard

After having a brief trial with the TP2 at voda yesterday, I actually found the keyboard less efficient for me, as with moderate speed my fingers would ocassionally press down multiple keys at once. I think the letterbox design of the original prevented this, as begin typing almost flawlessly with first use.
So previous Touch pro/Fuze owners whove switched:
1. Whats been your experience with Speed/accuracy typing. Better/Same/Worse?
2. Do you miss any of the removed keys in day to day use?
Ill have have another go today to see if it was just my muscle memory messing things up. However if the keyboard is a slight step down, Ill be reluctant to bare the cost of the upgrade just for the larger tilting screen (which I really liked).
For me it´s more comfortable than the one on old TP
But even much better is this one:

Universal keyboard!
Not any keyboard of actual devices on the market can beat this one
Agreed. The TP2 keyboard is easily the best keyboard since the Universal, but it doesn't beat it.
To be honest, if they put the screen and other hardware from the TP2 into a Universal chassis with that keyboard, they'd have an utterly awesome device. (3.5mm audio FTW!).

Galaxy S2 Sync Stand Dock station

I bought this dock for galaxy S2 and I'm very happy with it.
The advantage is you can use with galaxy S2 cover.
You can put it horizontally and vertically (horizontally no connection)
it is not cheap

Thanks a lot for posting this! Finally a dock that I can use my phone horizontally with! Been searching all over high and low for a dock that lets me use my phone horizontally so I can dock it on the text, use a keyboard and then use Splashtop to control my computer at home. I'll be able to do some serious tasking now! Holding my phone is such a downer when I can control it with a mouse and keyboard. Might as well be a tablet now
One question guys...do you think it can charge while in horizontal mode?
From what i get in the pictures, the charging is only in vertical mode. Anyone knows more info on that?
thanx!

Just search for "Sinjimoru Sync Stand for Samsung Galaxy" They're on Amazon and Ebay.

thank you friend
Do you reckon it'll work with an extended 3500mAh battery? It builds about 7-8mm extra on the back.

So, there will be a pen like the Note.. What do you think: useful or useless garnishment?

Well, the Note's pen is good and very useful for some apps, but that's mainly because of the big screen (I really miss the old Windows Mobile days and the stylus era ).

This is a clip for several newer phones that attaches to a PS3 Dualshock / Sixaxis controller to make mobile gaming easier. With a rooted Atrix and the Sixaxis app by Dancing Pixel Studios https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller&hl=en i've been using my phone with a PS3 controller for a while and would LOVE one of these. It's super cheap for a phone accessory (15.00USD), looks sharp, and would make GTA3 or Dead Trigger a bit more playable (I have big thumbs / the touch controls block half the damn screen). The only problem is that he doesn't support our phone dimensions.
I contacted the guy and he says
"If there is enough demand I might be able to make one to fit it! I would suggest posting on my facebook (http://www.facebook.com/GameKlip) and seeing if anyone else would be interested! Let me know if I can answer any more questions!"
So I figure if maybe 10 or 20 of us post on his facebook page wanting this for the Atrix we could get him to design one in our phone dimensions.
Thanks for sharing this. Wouldn't it be better if he made on that could be adjusted?
It would definitely support more devices but on the other hand adjustable clips wouldn't grip the phone as tightly as ones made specifically for the dimensions of a device. We're talking about a gaming device here, when i'm spamming the x button in a bullet hell shooter I don't want my phone flying out of the mount.

Just posted on their Facebook wall. Hope they actually make one for the Atrix.
Awesome! That puts us at 7 so far.

Car Dock?

I'm looking to find a Dock that I can use in the car. Unfortunately I have not used one since my old D1 days, and am way out of the loop as to what the good ones are. Any Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I use this one.

i wish these case making companies would make mounts too.
i don't want to use a poorly made, time consuming universal grip on my phone because it has a case on it.
recently bought a mountek universal based on high reviews and testimonials. seriously though, that product is a joke. the grip is not strong and the mount has an inherent design flaw... it is designed to literally seperate by putting pressure between a cd slot or dash seems and the screw to make it tight WILL jack up what you are putting it in. i returned it.
otterbox cant make a mount that fits its line of cases? i have a commuter case and i wish there was a specific mount for it
i have a couple ideas to get one, but it would cost me several hundred dollars and lots of time.

Bought the Original HTC Car Dock from HTC, bit pricier than i would like ( almost 35 from amazon.de) but i have to say that its great. The fact that the recharge cable is attached to the dock and charges every time you put them in the case is really practical.

I like this. And the fact that it would support my case is even better.
