Kinda weird

[nooper]

as long as the buttons aren't pressure sensitive.

If you think this is stupid, or useless, please think again. I find that one of t he disadvantages of touch screens that you dont feel where you`re pressing. You have to look where to press. Now, you can feel where your fingers roughly are, and this means that you should be able to use the keyboard again without looking. Just as I am typing this, without looking (but on a real keyboard).

Only con that I have, is that you have a seperate touch layer again.. I <3 in-screen touch tech, looks so gd
