But what's the keyboard like?

I'm guessing the answer is "not much", considering how much effort has gone into NOT showing the keyboard in all the publicity photos. But if by some wild chance, the keyboard should be good enough for not-quite-touch typing, there are some among us who would be willing to tolerate some other shortcomings.

The keyboard is like this http://blogs.computerworld.com/sites.../u125/ikit.jpg

Small keys, PDA-style, like the Zaurus. The N810 is far better, and has some archaic LEDs to light up (something Apple apparently believes they can patent; LOL!).
