I know you guys don't alter case.

I am aware that T1000 metal doesn't exist (unfortunately ), but I always thought that on mobile devices the keyboard was integrated in such a way that you can not just change keyboard and plugin a different one like on pc without writing drivers for it.

Of course you're free to casemod your Neo900 all the way you like, and connecting whatever kbd you like is no problem, neither hw side nor sw.
And I assume there is some kind of connector for it?
