By the way: what is meant with that formula, "without distractions"? It is the third time I find it, and now twice in a row. My immediate interpretation is of thinking of people nauseated by Microsoft Ribbon - but I am pretty sure that even MS Office allows for hiding all interfaces with a keystroke and leaving only text on the screen. All the products I use do it, so I guess that even MS Office should.
Different people probably mean different things by it. For me it's the overwhelming number of choices (ribbon, buttons, formatting choices, email, web, twitter, this forum, etc.). A device that can only do one thing but do it extremely well can be helpful to people in some cases. It's a pretty specialized need though.
