in my opinion:
yet another unessential gadget...

unessential (as for most of e-gadgets) := no real innovation, no real
benefits for people, environmental impact and (probably) exploitation of
workers to make it (will be manufactured in china? or in a mexican
maquiladora?...), pollution when spread worlwide, e-waste when will become
trash (i.e. see: http://www.ban.org/photogallery/index.html) ... just good
for corporations, marketing and resellers to make money

 

I don't think this will change the course of use of unessential gadgets but I think it will really alleviate my wrist pain. ;-) Might as well try it. If it doesn't work, probably can return to my old qwerty.
