I love the concept of the C210, but cannot find where to get a decent close up picture / hands on, or even to buy the darn thing. Any ideas?
Damn shame this isn't running; conceptually it looks absolutely fantastic and it would overcome all those annoying gimmicky solutions, such as Nokia's twist phone, and it would allow for different preferences in terms of the actual layout of key pads etc. potentially.

Only problem is if you have sweaty hands ...
Well - this one's certainly emotive! I work in an environment when I'm frequently on call for emergencies. I also am a parent, and would like to be able to leave a simple message for a babysitter as it's better for all involved. If there's an issue then a text'll be sent; if it's an emergency, it's a call. I always remember to put the phone on vibrate.

If a theatre wants to jam signals, then they should notify it at the time of booking and see how people vote with their feet or don't as the case may be.

Personally - I think mute covers the bases and perhaps an announcement wouldn't go amiss to remind those who forget.
Really, really stinks that Logitech happily continue to discriminate against the left handed.

Hate hate hate hate hate the disgusting company for it.
Well - this is certainly an emotive issue. As I work in an environment dripping with acronyms, which require to be placed in capitals, I like the key. I also frequently use insert, you may notice a q or two in this comment, love the windows key and absolutely most of all love the right hand windows key. I use these loads, the windows key most often now as part of a short cut system (such as windows-S for a OneNote screen clipping etc.) and the right one loads. I may have a mouse, but when my ten fingers are a-tapping then having easy access to these keys is fantastic.

As for the gamers: allowing the reprogramming of these keys is probably the best thing. Surely they've got enough resources to get themselves joysticks, steering weeks or PS2-type controllers rather than annoying those of us who actually use our extensive keybooards?!

I don't object to the caps lock key getting smaller, however. But the point is very valid about one handed typing (which I do fairly often when holding document, cup of coffee, telephone etc.) especially for the disabled.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
