[Sigia-l] Behold the TactaPad

[Karl Fast]

> How much would you pay for it? $1,000 as was suggested?

No, I wouldn't pay that much. Not for personal use. It's too
expensive. 

As a researcher, I am interested. It could be an interesting
experimental tool for studying interaction with cognitive artifacts.
Prototypes designed around it might lead to some interesting
findings.

If I ran a business, I might be interested if I could find places
where it would help. But it would have to help a lot to justify the
cost, plus the extra cost of installation, swith-over, tech support,
maintenance, and upgrades. The keyboard-mouse combination is far
from ideal, but it is familiar and cheap.

But for me, personally, a thousand bucks is too much.
