Samsung Within vs Samsung Epic 2 - Add on keyboard for Within/S2?

[aweyrich]

I currently have a Samsung Epic and will be upgrading to the Epic Touch 4G (Galaxy S2 on Sprint).

I am one of those people that has to have a physical keyboard - everyone uses their phone differently - writing email is my most important function....so I have to have a physical keyboard as I write long and detailed business emails....the on-screen keyboard just doesn't cut it for me.

Soooo.....for obvious reasons I would rather upgrade to the Epic Touch 4G as spec wise it was a monster. However I really need that physical keyboard. Does anyone know of a physical keyboard case for the S2 that has come out in other markets where the phone is already out? (UK/Europe/Korea etc?)

The word "touch" is the clue that there won't be a keyboard for the Epic replacement.

I am simply asking - does anyone know of an add on keyboard that will hook into the all touch Galaxy S2 phone? (or a keyboard case?) Does one exist?

There are videos online of the SGSII working with bluetooth keyboards and mice. So you could potentially purchase one of those fold up ones that fit in your pocket.

Here's one, go to the end to see the keyboard.

Now that the epic 4g touch is out, anyone find any luck on a keyboard case that will fit this monster phone?

I second the Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. With bluetooth 3.0 it works. I have seen video on it. I wonder if the PlayStation Bluetooth keyboard would work. That would be a portable solution if it works.

The Epic 2 isn't the Epic 4G Touch. The Epic 2 has a keyboard, 1.4ghz hummingbird, 4 inch screen of SAMOLED+(?), and an 8 megapixel camera on back. The Epic 4G touch however, has no keyboard, Exynos proc., 4.5 inch screen of SAMOLED+, and also an 8 megapixel camera on back.
