iPod Touch & Keyboard

May 4, 2008 11:38AM PDT

I was wondering if you could use a USB extender to attach a keyboard to an iPod Touch. With the keyboard and Google Docs on the Touch's Safari browser, who needs Windows Mobile? Anyways...would this be possible? Would the Touch recognize the keyboard?

What would an iPod Classic use a keyboard for?

(NT) Hint: Linux on said device.

People, it's just a keyboard with an iPod dock. Nothing more.
