I miss those ‘clacker’ keyboards.

Me too.

I can’t get used to the new stuff that feels like they have sponges under the keys.

I remember the IBM PCjr with its original 'chicklet' keyboard similar to the original Commodore - too nauseating for words.

So in reference to the "Kindle Fire" to the "iPad 2", I think that I am seeing much the same pattern. The Kindle is a successful product as is the iPad but I don't see the same for this junior tablet that draws from an enormously smaller "app workplace". In this horse race I will still ride the iPad although I am waiting for the iPad 3.
