No stylus to lose? They also allow 2 simultaneous presses to be read at once, which could lead to some interesting applications.
The Jackito was first mentioned on Mobileread
here and there a couple of good links. Back then (late July 04) they were targeting release by the end of the year, which plainly didn't happen, though they are not too far off. There's been a lot of hype around this device, and I'll be very curious to see how it lives up to it. For better or worse, I'm happy to see another OS out there for portables, along with a novel input schemes. If nothing else, it will move the entire class of devices forward another notch.
