I think the debate was not over whether touch controls are real but whether they are touch controls or not. I'll bet yours are touch controls. If you really shook it hard, is there any danger they would fall off? That would be one sign they are real and not virutal.

What was the question?

Excellent Question.

Good example. Virtual Toilets. Virtual Keyboards. Virtual Value.

Definitely. It's a real image, a genuine image, just like great art, an actual tangible representation of something that's not really there. It's not a keyboard, but it's a really good representation of one. And the representation is really really real. Otherwise all those museums would be...

It's a virtual keyboard. Like virtual money, virtual reality, virtual virtue. Make believe.

I need Tide Tool, True Push Email (Chatter), Italian Dictionary, French Dictionary, English Thesaurus, French and Italian Verb Conjugators, Vindigo, DTG, Continental Airline Scheduler, Google Maps, Guide Michelin, TomTom Navigator, and a few others. If IPhone can't give that, the keyboard is...

Hardly. It was easy to understand, it's just that my voice has gone up three registers after that wild pitch. Without keys, this is basically very attractive dude candy. People with a sweet gadget tooth (and that's most people, which is why I think it will be a phenomenal success) will buy it in...
