Funny enough, there actually ARE keyboards without keys… it’s a camera system and a projector that shows where the keys would be and sees where you are moving your fingers so you could literally type on any surface without keys. It looked pretty cool, but would take some time to get used to.Well… there’s that and the touch-screens with the on-screen keyboard (again, no keys) and I personally LOVE my voice recognition typing on my Droid. Much faster than typing in some cases unless I lose my train of thought because I’m enunciating so much (or have to pause to think). ;-)
I hate track pads. Too frigging sensitive, or not sensitive enough. No happy medium. And what is with selecting something just by hovering over it. What a pain. I hate those settings. And they cannot be turned off. Have to plug a mouse into the laptop to get it to stop auto selecting everything. Terrible, just terrible.

Yes, everyone is going to trackpads. That is why you see wireless mice being sold in many styles and colors.
To college students who also think that Jonathan Smit was serious in “A Modest Proposal”, this is a sarcastic remark.
