11:03AM Q: You've put a lot of work into the new touchpad, do touchscreens not make sense?
A: Steve: so far it hasn't made a lot of sense to us.

I confess that I don't get this one. It seems like ever major manufacturer has at least one tablet or convertible. It there really that little call for the technology in the real world? I'd think that that class full of Macbook toting students would be well served by a tablet and the handwriting recognition that has already been in the OS for quite a while.
