I am a touch typist. But not for every key on the keyboard. But more importantly, touch typing doesn't help you position your hands when moving them from something else to the keyboard.
> touch typing doesn't help you position your hands when moving them from something else to the keyboard. I thought that's what the bumps on the f and j keys were for.
Other than that, it looks like a nice keyboard. I wonder if mouse activity and keyboard activity conflict with each other, that your mouse starts moving while you only wanted to type or something...
They are not sure whether there are 80 or 90 sensors in the keyboard. The video says 90, the descriptive text says 80 :') Other than that, it looks like a nice keyboard.

I have two mice on my workstation. At least in Windows it just accumulates the movement. E.g. move left left, right right about the same amount and you'll have the cursor just moving around a little bit but staying mostly in place.

Couldn’t you just remove it?
If you remove the rubber nub, you still have a little plastic joystick poking out of the center of your keyboard. Also, the trackpads on Thinkpads are pretty worthless when compared to offerings by other manufacturers.
I don't get it. The "keep your fingers on the keyboard and use the mouse" thing has been solved ages ago with the trackpoint [1]. It's the number one reason for me not to buy a MacBook. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointing_stick

Tap to Click on this would be amazing
• If you allow tap-to-click, users are likely to trigger false positives from resting on the keys
• If you allow press-to-click, users will be unable to click in many positions (e.g. the intersection of 3 keys)

It's nice to see a differing point of view. For me, Trackpoints are the number one reason I don't buy Thinkpads. I cannot stand those things. Trackpads, especially those on Mac products, have a lot more functionality.

Figuring out how to disable that damn thing was my top priority when I had a thinkpad. Maybe I should have stuck with it, but it was just an annoying thing that was impossible to control and easily knocked to where I didn't want it to be (a problem when input focus is mouse based rather than foreground app based). So this looks interesting to me... but possibly suffers from the same problem of inadvertent activation.
Can anyone see how you switch between keyboard and touchpad mode? Or does it guess based on gestures? I tried to find it in the user manual, but it appears to only be in Korean.
