Victor I think the efficiency will really be based on the individual user and their understanding of the touch screen. I really don't see this as being inefficient, but there will be a learning curve initially without a doubt and the extent of that learning curve will be what affects efficiency. And actually I don't see this as being an issue affecting those who are blind or visually impaired. I really believe that depending upon what you are doing, will affect the need for a keyboard. I'd agree for example that if you are composing a letter or writing a book, a keyboard is really the best solution and would be preferred by most anyone I know. HOwever, I have to admit there are some of these teen- age kids who sure can type damned fast on those tiny keyboards you find on a lot of phones. :)
