Looks uncomfortable and unnatural for normal phone / PDA functionality if you ask me. I think typing would end up being more difficult.
It does add an interesting dynamic to non typing applications though. Game apps like the FPS in the video look like they would be a big improvement.
Gameboy / traditional handheld style buttons that are all pressed with the same finger (thumb) don't work well because you are likely to brush the wrong button when moving your thumb from A to B. However if the rest of your fingers wrapped around to "buttons" on the back user input would be much more accurate because you could get more "buttons" without making the user move their fingers along the plane of touch sensitivity as much.
In a few years there won't be any US car companies left to make our cars, might as well let Toyota and Honda make the batteries that go in our cars too.
Still, more thought was put into this than most programming language comparisons, other than the types of boats comparison. Somehow someone thought that if the boat comparison one was funny everything would be funny.
If Programming languages were types of women.
If Programming languages were flavors of soda.
