If you have the money and want a tech device, why not invest in it and build it? This seems to have been the idea behind the TYPO Keyboard which is a QWERTY keyboard add-on for touchscreen smartphones like the Apple iPhone 5 and 5S. Backed by American Idol host Ryan Seacrest, who has already sunk in $1 million into the venture, the TYPO Keyboard looks a lot like the QWERTY keyboards you'll find on a BlackBerry device, complete with contoured keys and a backlight for typing in dim or low-light conditions. The add-on covers up the Apple iPhone Home button making the iPhone longer and thicker but still allowing the use of auto-correct while also offering quick-access to currency keys. So far the TYPO Keyboard is only usable for the Apple iPhone 5 and 5S but it is being developed for other touchscreen smartphones as well. While there isn't any Malaysia release date, this is mainly because the TYPO Keyboard is due for release at CES 2014 at a price tag of $99 (RM318).
