It does not have to distort the visual image at all. I think a
braille input method would be good but an alternative method would
also have to be available as not many folk use/know braille. I'm
thinking speech recognition could come in here and as for the dynamic
stuff, we could have a talking interface that would allow its self to
be touched without reacting and provide help text. It can be done folk.

And I'm wondering if, perhaps, the touch surface itself could be
textured a bit to help the tactile experience. Hmm, that might distort
the visual image.

hi;
I just believe that come due time, the keyboard is going to become
obsolete. It seems were moving to a thinner world. This is so that
people could do the talked about "Folding a computer up like a peas
of paper and putting it in there pocket". If we have touch screen we
will be able to be able to make a much more smoothly, compacted,
computer. Look at some of the atm's now, they are touch screens.
Mobile phones, going touch screen, As well, there are all ready
computers in the near future that are going to be touch screen. You
may be right, and these are just my thoughts.
