Since my last message I've found out a little more about the upcoming

Why not modify a normal screen protector to have raised bumps in a keyboard

on the screen all the time and you could probably forget it's there
I agree that something, anything, that will help me justify upgrading my

for 3G but I want to get building right now, on v1.
I'd personally settle for a minor discount on the next version for so called
early adopters. But

It is a nice story. It's good to hear they're still in business.
However, at the risk (too late!) of sounding like a broken record, your
