Coming from a startup famously funded in part by Ryan Seacrest, and currently facing legal action from BlackBerry, Typo ($99) adds physical keys to the iPhone 5 or 5s. The chiclet-style buttons are built into a full case, and fit onto the phone in the vertical orientation, covering the Home button.
Connecting over Bluetooth, Typo allows full typing functionality with physical feedback, and maps the blocked button to a key in the bottom right corner.
The company claims Typo greatly increases iPhone typing speeds.
