but on a more serious note, if this sort of feedback could be used in specific areas , like when a virtual keyboard is created - the keys could perhaps lift-up from the touch-screen surface allowing our fingers to kind of "glide" over them without making a "press" as we do instinctively on conventional keyboards that would be great.
