According to The Register, Apple is considering creating an iPhone with a slide-out keyboard geared toward business users who don't like the idea of trying to type on a touch-sensitive screen. According to their sources, "whether or not [Steve Jobs] ever makes it work, he is already trying to make a 'slide-out' keyboard for a corporate version of the iPhone," and he has started showing prototypes of the device to operators in order to gauge demand for it.
