Just read where someone has written software for Mac that turns the Magic Trackpad into a number pad. You buy a decal to stick on your track pad that has keys silk screened on it.

I know the magic trackpad works as a mouse in Android, but what I wonder is how hard would it be to have it be used as a keyboard? Probably not easy, I would think. But how cool would it be to use the bottom half of the trackpad as a keyboard and the top half as a trackpad! The Trackpad is only a smidgen bigger than the Nook in portrait. I think they'd look pretty snazzy together.
