Tenacious hacker brings the iPhone keyboard to a Nokia N800

Filed under: ,

One awfully intelligent Brazilian programmer couldn’t stand not being able to experience the sometimes-maddening act of typing on the iPhone’s notorious keyboard — so he wrote an iPhone keyboard app for his Nokia N800. In what appears to have been a fairly short amount of moment, Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri put together an Apple-copyin’, typepad act-alike using Python, Edje, and a little elbow grease.

Check the video after the break to see the app in action.
