    That would be great!

    Input devices really need to evolve. I have always felt that the way we interact with computers right now can be greatly improved.

    That's some terribly polarizing hardware for a standard offering. I for one would be seriously weirded out not having positive feedback from keys; I bet I could soldier through the acclimatization process but I doubt the majority would.

    it's just gesture vs. tap ... difficult to type on that thing but i think the gesture technology could be used for many purposes. the typing stuff is not the best solution i think. maybe speech recognition would be a better typing-alternative.
