In the next one probably :) (That's just wild speculation of course)

Yea, it has haptic feedback


WARNING

::RANT::


You know, after the iPhone "revolutionized" the phone market with mobile safari (aka the First "true internet" in your pocket, which is a lie), I would expect all the phone manufacturers to put more effort into the browser of all phones. Yet, only specialized devices like the N810 have good browsers. What is SO difficult that a huge corporation, with a ton of experience, cannot make a good (not decent) browser?

What if it's a bluetooth keyboard, separate but made in the same style as the phone? Or, the keyboard might magnetically dock with the phone to get its power and communication link. There are so many ideas within phone/tablet space that are still not explored.

Anyway, the artist of this concept picture didn't get it quite right - notice how the red and green buttons swap places between the two pictures.

It isn't mentioned because there is no haptic feedback.

iirc, there recently was a asian company that showed of a phone that had two parts that docket magnetically.

as for bluetooth, would be interesting ;)

It was fujitsu, and the parts use bluetooth to talk to each other.
