A company called Gabrielor is pitching a rounded keypad design at CTIA to various equipment manufacturers, ostensibly because it’s… more efficient? I don’t know, really. The idea is that you can hit every key with a single finger, but you can already do that with T9 keypads, and on other thumboards, using both thumbs at a time is an asset, not a hindrance. But whatever, they’ve got a fancy new interface and I won’t poo poo it until I’ve had a chance to use it, because I am the least judgmental, off-the-cuff person in tech journalism.
