On a normal keyboard, I hit 120+ WPM. On the Touch keyboard, I spent more time correcting typoos and missed keystrokes than typing for sure. I'd have to have a camera on the keyboard to see where things went wrong, because it _seemed_ like I should be hitting all the keys I expected to hit, but I'm more than happy to acknowledge that what I really wanted was the keyboard cover with tactile feedback. The Touch keyboard was something I didn't get used to at all.
My usage patterns were incredibly light; it mostly sat near desktops or laptops as a mail client. With the app ecosystem and text input as it was, I was at a loss for other things I could do with it. By the end of the week, it was more or less a front end for Trello boards.
One of the compelling points was having a tablet platform in which real work can get done, but in the absence of an SSH client or text editor with syntax highlighting, that didn't really hold true for me (again, short-term problems). I can see where it'd make sense for folks that specifically need Office to get meaningful work done, but that wasn't the case for me.
That said, the ability to sideload Ubuntu and Chromium on the Nexus devices looks incredibly compelling. Really curious to see how that shapes up.
