OK, we know it’s just a really cool bit of animation from Manuel Eder, but what a concept if it was ever invented. It would almost certainly never happen because not only does Apple love the touchscreen keyboard so much, but it’s already squeezed in a hell of a lot into the iPhone casing, and there’d be no room for this keyboard.

Of course, using the internal circuit board as a screen stand might also not be the best method.

Never mind — this is a great piece of work. For anyone who really wants a keyboard for their iPhone, let’s hope someone brings out an add on.
