It's interesting.. here in the states, people really love the tactile
feedback you get with a "real" keyboard. But I've heard several
people say that touch screens are quite popular in Asia. If so, that
might explain why BenQ (and not Motorola) did this design and maybe
Apple is thinking about the iPhone for the Asian market instead of
the US market. Also... myPhone development has been greatly
simplified by having a touchscreen as the primary input. We can try
out all sorts of control layouts without having to print new keypads.

From our friends at SVHMPC,
A concept phone that is one big touchscreen, not unlike Neo1973.
Interesting
point: "One issue keeping touchscreen concepts like this from
becoming a
reality is the tactile-feedback issue" so I think we are right on
the mark
with the discussions of and proposed solutions to this issue.

I think I still want some kind of tactile keyboard option (credit-card
sized bluetooth keyboard may be good enough), but this is still pretty
interesting. :)
