After a while, they stop glowing and the area goes dark. And right after, the screen itself dims.

Did we watch the same video? There were no physical or capacitive 4 buttons on the device. The Home, Menu, and Back buttons follow you within the OS' UI depending on orientation. Rubin says as much when the woman asks. This makes perfect sense as if they had a fixed position on the device, you'd be forced to hold it in a certain way (e.g. upside down portrait would be wrong). Not to mention stretching to reach them when in Landscape would get irritating, or when they face your non dominant hand. The search button isn't needed as it has the real estate to just display the search bar all the time, unlike a phone, which is why there were only three.
