Gabrielor has developed new keyboard type for mobile devices. At first glance the novelty resembles Nokia's design solution implemented in Nokia 3650.

Gabrielor representatives claim that their solution has more sense - as all keys can be easily reached by the thumb. However, the symbols are assigned in the alphabetic order, which is convenient for comprehension rather than for use. In all there will be several keyboard variants designed for mobile phones, PDA and industrial terminals.

That is, by far, the ugliest... and probably the dumbest design solution I've ever seen!

Not only will it keep mobile devices the size of a home TV remote... it restricts form factor to accomodate such a large keypad!

Ugly, inconvenient and user unfriendly! That's it!

It doesn't look much convenient to me..
...I'm frightened by what I see but somehow I know that there's much more to come. Immobilized by my fear and soon to be blinded by tears. I know I can stop the pain if I will it all away...
