Nokia’s Haptikos Touch Technology To Make Keyboards Obsolete?

Haptikos is the name of a touch technology that Nokia is developing that looks like it might be getting closer to market time. With a haptic response that offers tactile feedback to the user, the S60 is slated as the first device that will feature the new technology as part of an onscreen digital keyboard. From what I’m reading it looks like you’ll be able to feel the same sort of feedback you get from a keyboard. I know Sierra is very interested in seeing this sort of thing come to be from Apple. Wonder who will get there first?
