Though having said this, legibility of the Jolla's screen in daylight is so poor, having ANY keyboard would be great for text entry when not dark / indoors.

Personally, I still dream about the awesome keyboard in the Nokia E71 (though obviously of a different type and layout).
I miss typing on a physical keyboard. Jolla's keyboard is pretty good for an onscreen keyboard, but it's just not the same. I don't do dev work (on the go) but general typing (WhatsApp, web browser, Twitter, etc.) is just so much better with a physical keyboard. I still keep my HP Pre 3 near. I don't use it anymore since I switched to Jolla, but sometimes I just look back at it and think about the happy times I had typing on that wonderful physical keyboard.
Landscape like TOH rev2 will be a bit different at first, I guess, but any physical keyboard with non-flat keys will be better than onscreen for sure.
