    I see a lot of negativity in the comments. And yeah, this thing probably isn’t something I’m going to get, but at least they are trying something that isn’t a generic rectangle of glass like all the others. I miss the days of fun gadgets.

      I like the generic rectangle block of glass.
      Don’t understand why they insist on a physical keyboard.

        i am personally sick of shiny rectangles. physical keyboards are the buttons on your cars dash instead of the shiny rectangle on your car’s dash.

          Cars’ buttons need to be used while preferably not looking at them, that’s a pretty different situation to a smartphone

            Being able to use a keyboard without looking at it is a good thing.

            Only thing that makes it “different situation” for smartphone is that they just don’t have the keyboards. (And some of us kinda accepted that…)

        I don’t mind it, but I also don’t hate that people are trying something new! Maybe it fails, but maybe it’s awesome!

        I much prefer physical keyboards and find it difficult to use touchscreen, so a mobile, qwerty keyboard sounds great to me.
