a one-hand keyboard maybe more immediately useful for many :-p
Looks like they wasted a whole bunch of effort for nothing. Did they even bother to call up Rick Moranis before trying to make a keyboard big?
It would be cool if it didn't suck.
They had better built an extra-big server.
(Forgot to write about the keyboard...) It's cool with big keyboards but they fit better in David Lynch movies or in cartoons :=
over-compensating?
........ After mashing your small keyboard with your fingers that are too fat too type ? If so I want a drinking bird with my fat fingered keyboard !
How about building your own Gibson article?

Designed for two to six year olds with a range of cognitive and physical abilities,

Why is it that sites linked from slashdot almost never work?

You'd never find a screen huge enough where those those big letters would fit on :-]
Nah, it's a ZX80 for me.
Is there anything people won't misspell nowadays?
Honey, I shrunk the CygWin [twu.net]
It's "Cygwin".
That'd be one hell of a "misfortune" that would break these boards (global thermonuclear war, etc.)
I've spilled stuff into this I'm typing on now twice, I think. Both times I've taken it into the shower for a healthy rinse. Gets out all of the Keyboard Crud too, and after leaving it to dry it works perfectly again. They just don't make them like they used to.
