This is available on the Configuration class. You can get the current Configuration via getResources().getConfiguration() from your Activity or other Context.

That way =)

public boolean isKeyboardVisible(){
 // Checks whether a hardware keyboard is visible
 if (getResources().getConfiguration().hardKeyboardHidden == Configuration.HARDKEYBOARDHIDDEN_NO) {
     return true;
 } else if (getResources().getConfiguration()..hardKeyboardHidden == Configuration.HARDKEYBOARDHIDDEN_YES) {
     return false;
 }
}
