You're the type that saw the iPhone's first release and thought, "It's stupid to use my finger to touch stuff on the screen. Just use the tactile direction buttons like an intelligent person would."
So close and so far.
I'm the sort of person who has had wacom tablets since the 90s, and many a penabled and/or multitouch thinkpad nearly multiple decades, and has not had a mobile phone since the Snowden confirmation in 2013. And before that, yes, my phones had full physical keyboards (nokia e90, & n900).
