    Cool! Maybe I’ll pick it up if it doesn’t suck with Linux.

    Next, make one with a nipple and mouse buttons and I’ll buy another. My Thinkpad is getting old.

      I hope they release a keyboard with a nipple, preferably blank so I can add a dvorak layout to it

        I had a blank keyboard at one point at work, it was fine until my brain completely forgot about all the letters were, I couldn’t remember for like 10 minutes.

        I’d buy that so fast it would make their head spin.

        And yeah, Dvorak users unite!!

        I meant the general experience of a touchscreen on Linux with rotation and whatnot. Do applications work nicely with it or will I generally end up avoiding the touchscreen and “tablet” mode?
