When you say 'regular' do you mean a USB keyboard or a regular
bluetooth? I haven't tried it but there were lots of messages on this
list talking about hooking bluetooth keyboards to iOS devices. There is
no USB port on iOS devices but that's not to say somebody hasn't come up
with some kind of dongle which will allow you to do that. Probably not
worth the cost compared to just getting a bluetooth keyboard.

Is there no way to connect a regular apple keyboard to any ios device?
You know the way one can connect one to a laptop?
