Play along - create a PinePhone keyboard

[tigerforce]

I'd like to remind everyone that the BlackBerries had a teeny tiny trackball(or an optical trackpad later on).
You could still get them as modules for Arduinos, so it seems to be an option if anybody wants to incorporate them into their keyboard designs.

Or even just have them in the back cover without a keyboard and figure out the use case for it later. idk.
Also, the PS Vita had a whole trackpad in the back.

An optical trackpad like this should be very useful. It does not take much space. Also I would like to have keys like Ctrl, Alt, Esc. They are very useful in Emacs and Vim. All common symbols like F1-F12, []{}\|~` should be kept as they are often used in shells and other terminal utilities. I don't mind if some of the symbol keys need to be entered with the Fn key. Arrow keys can be used as PgUp, PgDn, Home, End with the Fn key.
