Re: Question Regarding iPhone 5C Cases with Slide-out Bluetooth Keyboard
My brother bought an imitation of an Apple keyboard which had a very similar look and feel to the actual Apple product, except that the on/off button wasn't on the side but rather it was a switch located on the bottom. He says he got it a year ago from walmart's Web site but he didn't think they were still offering it.

I just went to the URL in your message. I find the concept intriguing and I'd like to see the keyboard but $150.00 is a lot of money to spend on a keyboard.

RE: Question Regarding iPhone 5C Cases with Slide-out Bluetooth Keyboard
Ari, The Logitech K811 is just as nice as the Apple Wireless keyboard and it has a nice low-profile slider switch on the right side which would never turn on by accident. I think the issue with the Apple Wireless keyboard is not that it looses battery since the battery lasts forever anyways, but if it does turn on in a pack then also buttons get pressed so then I have to turn Bluetooth off on the phone in order for my phone not to do stuff all the time and of course that doesn't work so good if I am using a Bluetooth headset.

Question Regarding iPhone 5C Cases with Slide-out Bluetooth Keyboard
Hello. On Amazon's site I see that they offer several iPhone cases with attached bluetooth keyboards. I'm intrigued by the concept but wonder if these cases are worth buying. Specifically, are the keyboards easy to use? Am I better off just purchasing a wireless keyboard? -- David Goldfield, Founder and Peer Coordinator, Philadelphia Computer Users' Group for the Blind and Visually Impaired Feel free to visit my new Web site http://davidgoldfield.info/ -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: Question Regarding iPhone 5C Cases with Slide-out Bluetooth Keyboard
I am not sure if the cases are great or not how ever the apple wireless is excellent. I use my apple wireless keyboard a lot. Now about the cases with the bluetooth keyboards attatched to them I really can't say much about them at this time because I have never had a case that comes with a bluetooth keyboard.

Re: Question Regarding iPhone 5C Cases with Slide-out Bluetooth Keyboard
If you can use something like the RII keyboard or other such devices about the same size as your phone, then they can make sense. Also remember, however, they are going to add some thickness and wait. I used the Boxwave brand keyboard with an earlier iPhone 4s. It added about the phones thickness and maybe half the phones wait. I just found that for as little as I required a keyboard, the added bulk was not worth it. On Apr 30, 2014, at 10:40 AM, 'David Goldfield' via VIPhone viphone@googlegroups.com wrote: Hello.
