The NUU MiniKey
Tired of typos when using your iPhone 4 on-screen keyboard? Type faster and more accurately with the NUU MiniKey. Whether you’re texting, e-mailing or blogging, the NUU MiniKey is a great alternative to using the on-screen keyboard. Simply snap your
iPhone 4 in the case, slide the keyboard out and type away!
The NUU MiniKey conserves battery life by breaking the BT connection to the
keyboard when it is left idle for ten minutes. When idle simply slide out the keyboard to wake the NUU MiniKey and reconnect the devices.
The MiniKey has its own separate power source, so it won’t drain your iPhone
battery! The built-in rechargeable battery connects with an included micro-USB cable. A status LED shows you when the keyboard is charging or low on power.
The MiniKey’s case features a series of carefully-positioned metal springs that
connect your iPhone antenna to the case’s metal backing, allowing it to become one with the antenna. This connection compensates for the reduction in signal strength so common to other products on the market. The springs are flexible and will not scratch your iPhone casing.
