I would certainly buy a HWKB for the N9. I put in a request to Boxwave but I'm not too optomisitc. There are other products that combine a phone and small btkb in a wallet like case that look nice. This might be your best bet. A leather carrying case could easily be customized. It would be fun if one could use the N900's keyboard to control the N9. Is this possible? Perhaps a device could somehow be made so that a N9 piggybacks on the N900. Together they could called the N909!
