their best asset is their Thumb-Driven-Interface know how.
Microsoft (with the university of Maryland) is working on their own thumb-driven-Interface but they say that it's impossible to enter text...microsoft's ui is only a iPod like interface to scroll and click an appli. but not to enter text,calculate or play for example.
seems that jackito have an advance on that.
Samsung and Nokia are also working on fingertip touchscreen ui as they say.
Perhaps jackito is only a R&D team of microsoft testing an opportunities in the field of touch user interface (microsoft/University of maryland speak about Jackito and iPod in their references.
