I wondered where all the crack cocaine went, and apparently these guys are smoking it in copious amounts. $430? But never mind the cost, which is probably only so high so that people will dismiss this out-of-hand instead of giving it serious thought. But let's give it some anyway.

We'll ignore that built-in keyboards are more and more common in smartphones and this is obsolete to begin with; there are surely some folks with older phones that might find this useful if it cost a tenth of the MSRP up there. Forget that, because the best part is just ahead:

We've got three things to hold--your cell phone of choice, stupid keypad, and its uncomfortably small stylus. BUT LOOK MA--ONLY TWO HANDS. It's going to be extremely awkward to hold the phone and the keypad in one hand while you type with the other.
