Pocket-Sized Virtual Keyboard Now Fits On Your Keychain

Similar devices were made for the PalmPilot (never tried one, but remember they were being hyped back in the day):

hehe "fits on a keychain", I think most things fit on a keychain if you remove the restraint of "fits in your pocket"

I like the idea of these projection keyboards, but they need to be built into a mobile device, not carried around as another cigarette-box sized accessory in my jeans.

I also suspect that the lack of tactile feedback may make typing no faster than on the phone itself.

Does anyone have a link to a reputable review where the author has actually tried it in person? 'cos if this works well that is really cool.

Terrible marketing strategy to emphasize product size. Normally any device smaller than regular keyboard is an achievement. They suppose to emphasize accuracy and usability.

There are some really bad photoshops in there...

I tried one of these around the time of the XBOX360 launch down at the Microsoft HQ here in Melbourne, Australia.

Needless to say: they are terrible.

They have a fundamental flaw of your fingers being in the way of themselves. You are forced to alter your typing style drastically and even then typos are frequent.
