iPhone/android app idea: A keyboard that clicks like Model M

[glossywhite]

Ooooh! Imagine an iPhone/Android/BlackBerry keyboard that sounded like a Model M/Cherry MX blue. This would be SO easy to do!

Clickety Clackety, let's pretend we have tactile feedback! ^_^

I don't have any iOS device, but I thought that the keyboard already clicks.

It does... but the buckling spring noise is unbeatable!!

Actually,

I was planning on doing just that.

You could then also set a timer so the phone stops auto clicketyclacking when you went to bed after an hour or so. I know for a fact some people dig that ( falling asleep with keyboard sounds ) !

Typing on a touchscreen is the worst thing ever so it wouldn't matter.

I wouldn't quite say the worst thing ever; I can think of worse things, but they're not exactly amazing, I agree. The iPad isn't too bad, but nothing beats a real keyboard.

My resistive touch screen on my T-mobile Pulse Mini is ghastly beyond all belief.... RESISTIVE touch screen

I suppose a lot of Touchstream users might disagree.

Wow, they're great, but a little laggy... and I cannot do any typing whilst on that

I see a picture of a keyboard and what I'm typing. What am I missing here?

You are welcome.

Also thank webwit, without his excellent model M simulator I could not have done it...
