Samsung’s new phone with “optical joystick”: the press release is quite unclear, but if that’s what I think it is — basically a mini trackpad that detects how your finger moves across the surface, which could indeed very easily be done with the same tiny hardware an optical mouse uses — then I’m rather pissed that Samsung might have patented that instead of, say, Sony-Ericsson.
(Although the on-screen interface is cute, too.)
