I'm sure Webwit didn't like that one. IIRC he said it was one of those things with no tactile feedback due to being a membrane board (As in 2 membranes that your finger pushes together rather than a mechanism, like the early Atari consoles).

It's not membrane, it's entirely touch based... apple actually bought the company to get the tech to make the iPhone...  which is why we no longer have touchstream (A loss to all of those at FingerFans)
Can't get enough of them ALPS
