Urgh, no. I need a real keyboard. Too much time spent with a touch-screen PDA on rickety old buses!

Its just gorgeous. And no you wouldn't miss a real keyboard, quite the opposite. If you get proficient with that you could be so utterly fast at typing :D Plus id take the concept of Ebook to a whole new level.

I would hate to take my watch off in fear of scratching that thing when I need to use it. Really, who comes up with these things?

Like others here, I feel a real keyboard is more efficient. It does look nice, however.

ooo! I want!

I could deal w/o the real keyboard... Just as some others, though, I'd be worried about scratches....

another vote for needing the tactile feel of a real k/b.

Yes (If I understand correctly).

Touch provides a valuable set of information when you are entering data. By removing that, you are actually reducing the ability for people to interact with the computer. Yeah, you might get used to it... but what if you are blind or have failing eyesight? We have screen readers for a reason.

I doubt this has the technology, but there are cell phones with no real keys that actually give you touch feedback when you push the screen. Once this technology can be extrapolated to larger scale keyboards, we might have a winner here. But I agree with most, that this really isn't that useful without a real keyboard in its current state.

Very Cool!....I'll agree though, needs a real keyboard!

I agree too, it needs a keyboard. What happens when you start pressing things by accident? It would be good for reading pdf's though, if someone developed a program that opened each page on a different screen.

I'll take a computer with no keyboard. I just ruined my drooling over this magnificent piece of technological artwork.

I'm not sure how practical such a keyboard is, since you would not be able to feel the keys, it may be harder, or at least take some getting used to.

just sitting your fingers on the home row would probably cause that thing to go absolutely crazy. Not to mention it'd be impossible to touch type.

I'd love to see what games would be possible with it though.
