Agreed. It reminds of when the iPhone introduced people to the idea of an on-screen touch keyboard. Many people said they didn't like it and would keep using their Blackberries. How's that working out for RIM these days?

The point is that if the technology works (which is the important question, IMO), then users will adapt and embrace it.

The touch screen keyboard is still inferior to a hardware keyboard for typing. There are other reasons that companies produce more touch screen only devices and people buy them. Style, cost, simplicity, larger screen etc.
