That would make gaming on a tablet or even a mobile more natural then using visual controller overly things or whatever they are called!

The button sizes are quite large and lumpy, so I'd be skeptical about the resolution they can do. For example, could it do brail?

There is also quite a delay. So how it handle scrolling a keyboard up the screen? Something I do on my iPad.

The residual effect is also *very* noticeable. I'd worry if there would be a permanent keyboard etched into the screen.

Finally having a solid layer of fluid, on an already very slim device, will probably add a noticeable amount of weight on top.

Otherwise, THAT'S FRICKIN AWESOME! I'm sure in 5 years, when it's far more mature, all of my skepticism would have been removed.

It's a godsend to anyone that likes mobile gaming, no more having to take your eye off the game when you lose where the buttons are at.
