      How are you using a keyboard in a browser on Android? I didn’t use keyboard since BlackBerry KEY.

          You’re actually using one? I saw similar project (or this one) some time ago. I also found BB10 keyboards modified to just act as USB keyboard and even tried to buy one but the supply was very limited and they would be gone in a matter of hours. And I have zero experience with JLCPCBs. And all phones are so big now that attaching extra keyboard to them wouldn’t be that practical. I would kill for a modern N900 type phone.

            Yeah, I developed that, and I’m daily-driving it since 2021. Wouldn’t want to go without one.

            JLCPCB is really nice.

            The phone does get long, but I got used to it quite quickly.

              Where did you get the keyboard? I had a Q10 (and Priv, and Key) but I’m an idiot and I always throw the phones away weeks before discovering their parts may still be useful.

              Are you able to use it with a case?

          Sounds like all you gotta do is wait then, since your hyper-niche scenario will become a lot less niche once that happens.
