Not the future of input devices

[andrewducker]

The main problem with the glove is threefold:
1) Not as fast as a keyboard.
2) Not easy to learn - with a keyboard you can see the letters and hunt for the one you want.
3) How many people are that unhappy with a tiny keyboard and need to type while on the move? Unless you also have the headset on, it's a tad pointless - and who wants to strap a headset on and walk around looking like that?

Having said that, I'd probably give one a go myself, but I'm a big geek.

My sister (God rest her) taught me the way round a keyboard when I was only about ten years old. She was at secretarial college at the time, Pitman's no less. IMHO, modern kids are TOO F*CKING LAZY and expect everything on a plate. 'Wake up you little bastards' life DOES NOT owe you anything at all, you need to EARN respect and consideration. If you want money and respect? WORK!

Sorry Andrew, I just HAD to rant on this point.

I'm not sure laziness applies in this case - as the device would be harder than a keyboard, not easier. It's just that walking and typing isn't exactly feasible.
