Keyboard Works with Non-Jailbroken iPhone
The fine folks Perceptive Development has created a system that they hope to bring to the masses that will allow users to connect a keyboard, via infrared to your iPhone.
PerceptDev engineers have created a hardware/software solution that say involves electronics that total less than $20. The solution involves a microprocessor emulating a modem that detects an infrared signal or can read from a USB host controller. The signal is converted to FSK for transmission to the iPhone.
An iPhone application was then created to decode the FSK signals into text.
Check out the video of their hard work below.
