That has to the stupidest thing from apple I have ever seen. People don't need to be dumbed down even more then they already are. If that thing catches on, then people will see no need to learn how to type. IMO

I agree with you on that one. I think it would take forever to type with that and only 19 mins of battery life, for the 2600 you could get a way better lappy.

I saw that. I have don't have much of an opinion on it. Its cool that they are making something new but typing has already been proven to be effective! (not that they shouldn't make something new)

Haha! I see it's comedy fakeness now. Yeah, if apple really did release this they would be RETARTED! Typing like THAT? Would take absolutely forever. Thing that made me laugh was 'Virtually Unbreakable unless dropped or hit" :lol:

"the one guy took 45 minuets typing a paragraph!:lol:. If poeple did think it was real and wanted it, it would just show how much of a slave they are to the apple corperation.
