    Anyone recognize the technology integrated into this HUD. Yup it is a touch pad. The TrackPad, pioneered by BlackBerry, still relevant tech. Glad it is making a comeback in the Classic.

    This pairs with Android phones nicely, I'd like to use it with my BlackBerry. It begs the question, do all Android apps require Google Play services if they are going to include maps. If it does, doesn't that actually make Android a closed system?

    Corrected to TrackPad. Shame on me for forgetting an ex's name.

    You mean a trackpad, which was by no means BlackBerry's idea to begin with.

    They just made one that worked.

    Do you have some example of other devices with TrackPads?

    HP had one, not too long before the 8520 came around. There was an Android (motorola one I believe) with a trackpad on the back of the device (??) too.

    Oh yeah. Laptops

    Correct me if I am wrong. Laptops and the other tech you are talking about uses capacitive touch. The TrackPad is optical as is controler in the Recon Jet.

    Like I said, BlackBerry was not the first, they just did it better.
