These existed shortly after the iPhone came out under the presumption people would miss the physical keys from blackberries. They didn’t sell well back then I don’t think they will now.

Probably because they were all cheap crap and not made up to the standards of the device they connected to.

I had one for my iPhone 4, it was cool but not hugely practical

Personally I wouldn’t mind having a phone with modern cababilities and Nokia Communicator / E7 type keyboard.

I still don’t understand why PDAs are no longer a thing. Make a phone a bit thicker, add ports, thumb keyboard… I remember being able to SSH to servers from my Zaurus and actually do things using the hardware keyboard. Or SSH to my n900 and install packages there. With android I just lost the interest. It doesn’t feel like a personally computer anymore.
