No, trackpads are awful for drawing. Single-pixel cursors are infinitely more accurate than fat human fingers. It just doesn't work.
That said, I do miss a lot of the macbook trackpad gestures on my desktop, so being able to replicate that will be kinda nice. Also it'd sit in my lap a lot easier for using it as something of a media-remote for watching stuff on my iMac for a distance.
Killer product? I think not
2) Seriously? Do they REALLY think that a mouse is becoming obsolete? The multi touch is nice but it's still a track pad, it's imprecise and annoying to use. The multi touch is nice because you don't have a mouse, with a mouse it's pretty useless.
Stupid.
But, making it that big so that it has to be off to the side means it's going to be much less interesting to me, I think.
I guess it depends on how much you like your mouse. I've always preferred a trackball for casual use, so I would be interested in a multi-touch pad. You are not going to game with it, but that’s not what it is for. A nice large surface that fits your whole hand seems about the right size for real multi-touch controls.
Will, maybe they'll make a full size keyboard, with the num pad under the touch glass. ;)
Track-pads always seemed like a less than stellar mouse replacement, that I only use because I don't want to lug a mouse...
Guess I'm not the target market for this then.
