One of the neatest new gadgets for the Apple iPhone 4 is the NUU MiniKey - Qwerty Bluetooth Keyboard. To be sure, other companies have earlier created add-on-keyboards for the iPhone but the NUU MiniKey is the slickest implementation I have seen to date.
The physical sliding QWERTY Bluetooth keypad attaches to an iPhone 4. It provides tactile feedback to your typing. It is much easier to type on this keyboard than on the iPhone's built-in "glass keyboard." The keys are also backlit.

The physical slide out keypad allows you to effectively double your iPhone screen's viewable area because the "glass keyboard' image never appears on the screen and therefore never blocks what you need to see. The downside is that the NUU MiniKey adds bulk in your pocket, effectively doubling the thickness of the phone. However, if you've got the space in your pocket, the MiniKey will provide easy access to symbols and editing shortcuts through its Command, Shift and Function keys. A toggle switch also lets users easily switch between the MiniKey and onscreen keyboard modes.
No functions or connectors on the iPhone are blocked by the MiniKey case, not even the phone's camera and flash. The case charges via micro-USB and will go into standby and sever the Bluetooth connection to conserve battery life after around 10 minutes of inactivity. The case will also go to sleep when the iPhone does.
