ThinkGeek just announced the upcoming availability of the TK-421 iPhone Case with Flip-Out Keyboard. This case has a flip out bluetooth keyboard underneath that is fully supported by iOS 4 on the iPhone4 and 3GS. I know it works because I was one of the testers. :)

I can't give away the secrets of the case here, but let me say that there were a lot of candidates for the keyboard part of the case and I got to peck around with most of them.

Some of the specs from ThinkGeek:

  • Keyboard flips out for use, then flips back in when done
  • Magnet based clasp keeps keyboard in position whether flipped in or out
  • Completely wireless Bluetooth™ connection does not use dock connector
  • Keyboard powered by built in rechargeable battery, recharges via included USB cable
  • Invented and designed at ThinkGeek
  • Models available to fit iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 4
  • Phone case has holes for camera (and flash on iPhone 4 model
  • The keyboard will not work with iPhone 3, as only the 3GS supports an external keyboard.

iPhone Keyboard Case 3GS and 4

So, if you've been jonesing for a real keyboard, drop by the site and sign up to get notified when it's in stock ($49.99).

Full disclosure: If it isn't obvious, I work at ThinkGeek.
