That's basically what the PinePhone keyboard accessory is. The phone clips into the top half and the bottom half is a physical keyboard. It is essentially a pocket sized laptop. I'm typing on it now and I can actually type much faster on this than any normal touch phone keyboard since you can properly touch type on it.

That looks sweet. Like a Psion 5.

Not what I'd personally have much use for (kinda like using phone in vertical an in-hand), but yea, leave it to small indie companies to come up with important things.

Ed: but I was referring to this where the keyboard can be attached right to the bottom screen.
