I usually use my N810 without touching the screen much. Menus I activate with the menu button, then select with the d-pad. I scroll in the browser using the space-bar. I select elements in forms with the d-pad. It's a lot faster and more convenient this way for me.

I was worried that I'd have to break this habit wit Fremantle (should I ever get such a device) because of the missing d-pad, then relaxed when I saw there are at least cursor keys.... and now am worried again:

Is there something that will have the function of the current "menu"-key?
Will it be possible to select one of several adjacent buttons/checkboxes with the cursor keys? I read somewhere that those elements don't have a focus anymore because "it doesn't make sense in a touch based environment"... so what does that mean? will it really be "fingers only"?

any information based on the SDK?
