      I had a conversation with a coworker that was really excited when the rabbit r1 (which I think wound up actually running Android under the hood) came out. I think some people just like having little devices/toys. Things like the design and physical buttons make it seem cooler to them.

        Every time I see a physical keyboard on a portable device I have this nostalgia for my old Motorola Droid.

        Then the lizard brain tags out for monkey brain, and I remember how unpleasant the thing was to type on. The only reason it was cool was because the onscreen was so small that that it was pleasant by comparison.
