How do you feel about the one that DOESN'T have the number pad?
Ah, sorry about that!

Well as it wasn't illustrated in the article it's a bit difficult to comment on the other one, but yes I was referring to the one WITH the keypad... :-)

If you take the keypad off completely then the design problems are pretty much resolved, and you have a standard touchscreen tablet-style device.



a) I could easily use that number pad with just my right hand on the device.
Yes, but it would be easier to do so if the keypad wasn't attached to one side of the device.

If you use it one-handed you're going to have the weight of the other side constantly dragging down on the left, which is a very bad design.
