Keyboard with rotatable portion

1. A keyboard, comprising:

a base portion;

a first keyboard portion coupled with the base portion and comprising a first edge and a first plurality of keys, where the first keyboard portion is held in a fixed orientation relative to the base portion;

a second keyboard portion comprising a first edge, a second edge, and a second plurality of keys; and

a connection component that couples the second keyboard portion with the base portion and allows a movement of the second keyboard portion, relative to the base portion and the first keyboard portion, between a closed storage orientation and an open operational orientation;

where the first edge of the second keyboard portion is adjacent to the first edge of the first keyboard portion when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the closed storage orientation, where the second edge of the second keyboard portion is adjacent to the first edge of the first keyboard portion when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the open operational orientation, and where the keyboard has a longer length dimension when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the open operational orientation than when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the closed storage orientation;

where the base portion comprises a frame, where the connection component comprises a first pivot socket and a second pivot socket, where the first pivot socket connects a corner portion of the second keyboard portion with a corner portion of the first keyboard portion, where the second pivot socket connects the second keyboard portion with the frame;

where the second keyboard portion rotates about an axis line passing through the first pivot socket and the second pivot socket when the second keyboard portion transitions between the closed storage orientation and the open operational orientation; and

where the second plurality of keys of the second keyboard portion face an opposite direction than the first plurality of keys of the first keyboard portion when the second keyboard portion is in the closed storage orientation, and where the second plurality of keys of the second keyboard portion face a same direction as the first plurality of keys of the first keyboard portion when the second keyboard portion is in the open operational orientation.

2. The keyboard of claim 1 , where the second plurality of keys comprises a larger number of keys than the first plurality of keys.

3. The keyboard of claim 1 , where the second keyboard portion has a larger surface area than the first keyboard portion.

4. The keyboard of claim 1 , where the first edge of the second keyboard portion is longer than the second edge of the second keyboard portion.

5. The keyboard of claim 1 , where the first keyboard portion comprises a first sub-portion of a QWERTY keyboard associated with a mobile electronic device, and where the second keyboard portion comprises a second sub-portion of the QWERTY keyboard.

6. The keyboard of claim 5 , where the QWERTY keyboard comprises a “G” key and an “H” key, where the “G” key is part of the first keyboard portion and the “H” key is part of the second keyboard portion, and where the “H” key is positioned adjacent to the “G” key when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the open operational orientation but not when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the closed storage orientation.

7. The keyboard of claim 1 , where the first keyboard portion is substantially coplanar with the second keyboard portion when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the closed storage orientation and when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the open operational orientation.

8. The keyboard of claim 1 , further comprising a keyboard activation switch, where the keyboard activation switch is triggered when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the open operational orientation but not when the second keyboard portion is positioned in the closed storage orientation.
