I haven't gotten to play with a real one, but did use the shell model at a best buy. I have to say the whole click thing is not good. If they could come up with a way to make the screen "soft" where it only clicks down where your finger is then maybe it would be better, but the whole screen click just isn't intuitive at all.

I think it actually would make you type slower because you have to way until the screen pops back up before you can press the next key, when normally you could start depressing the next key as the other one is coming up.

That's one thing about apple, even before I became a user of their products I always thought they were in the top companies (if not the top) of UI development.
