Apple and Immersion have reportedly begun talks about integrating some sort of tactile feedback system into the iPhone. If you’ll remember, one of the biggest complaints about the iPhone when it first came out was its lack of feedback when typing with its touch screen keyboard. With an example of their work coming in the Samsung’s new Instinct, Immersion Corporations is a company that would fix just this problem. The most common way of doing this sort of thing is a small vibration that happens near where you touch to confirm the device has received your input.
In my opinion, the iPhone touch screen keyboard is fine just the way it is once you get used to it, but I have small fingers so may have it a little bit easier than most. However, I have used devices with tactile feedback such as vibrations and I sort of like it. I’m sure Apple and Immersion will find an innovative way to integrate this if they, in fact, do. Who knows, maybe it’s even coming in the 3G iPhone, but I doubt it will be ready by then. What are your thoughts on this?
