Until we have a better method than a keyboard of getting data from a brain into a device, a handheld unit with keyboard is not a bad format. Currently phones are rectangular which is one of those “but that’s how we’ve always done it” things. I think there’s vast opportunity to improve the interface with the hand- even providing left hand and right hand models.
Also, I don’t need my phone to be 8mm thin. Fatten it up and give me some more battery capacity.

MS tried non-rectangle phones, with keyboards - Microsoft Kin. The worst design failure in history of mobile phones ever.

Looked it up. Yeah seems pretty awful.
