Two Videos of E-Lead's Noahpad in Action 114
Engadget has a couple of great videos depicting the new 'Noahpad' laptop offering from E-Lead. This laptop offers a new kind of touchpad that is integrated with the keyboard. An interesting idea to be sure, but I doubt I could ever get used to typing on something this strange.

Now I know the designer's braindamaged. Nintendo thumb is bad enough; this guy apparently wants to turn us into thumbless lolcats or something.

That's WAY too harsh a punishment for the poor keyboard designer. I mean, all he did was design a hard-to-use keyboard, so he can't possibly deserve a punishment that awful.
Better just to shoot the poor guy.

Think about it. Wouldn't the *crunch* or that thing hitting a masonry wall at 40MPH with all those little *$(@#$# keys spilling onto the floor be really satisfying? You know it!
Thanks, E-Lead, for putting the customer first!

The wonderful thing about the Proxomitron is that it can block advertising in Slashdot posts.

"With this special feature, User can press any part of the touch pad... Just like the mouse, no matter THERE your finger tip touches any part of the touch pad, you just gentle touch, and it can execute input function."
It's strange that the language in the first video is fine. You get the impression that the narrator tried to be nice and speak correctly for the first video, got in an argument with the script writers over lunch, and then said "Fuck it" for the second one.
