The Samsung Alias2, soon to be on Verizon, uses what appears to be segmented e-paper to change the labels on its physical QWERTY keyboard. A neat solution to a problem that will eventually be solved with something like Apple’s patent for a touchscreen that physically deforms itself. [Phone Area]



What an awful UI. Did they learn nothing from Microsoft Bob and General Magic?
Hey, that’s the phone that I’ve had for 2 years, with a better KB.

Want!!
The keyboard is clever, but the onscreen UI is hideoustastic.
Anybody heard of a release date for this phone?
