Thanks, that was very interesting. Android looks to work very well with a keyboard and mouse, especially considering it is almost unused in this way today. Everyone ranting that android is a mobile 'toy' platform should definitely watch this first.

I was surprised how many programs had keyboard support (GTA III looked great, i suppose i shouldn't be surprised since it is a port of a desktop game.. impressive none-the-less).

I could definitely see myself using this on an extended vacation or such, and with some more time for google and application developers to get used to this usage type, i can really see it working very well, and it's not impossible it could start to encroach on windows' territory.




I have heard Android called a lot of things but "mobile toy platform" hasn't been one of them.
