Oh J.Greely you card

I have an online friend who's a total curmudgeon. Last time he griped about the awesome bar (the thing about it is how after the same initial rejection I loved it). This time it is the Lexus mouse, which we mentioned recently. The main complaint is that to use the mouse, the driver has to take eyes off the road. But it is true to any other interface too! The fallacy J. is pushing is that adding buttons would allow one to count clicks or whatnot. And it's false. Of course, some functions work without looking, for example radio on/off and scan. But the lexmouse does not dispose with them! All it does is replacing the touch-screen or tab-tab-tab-like-crazy UI, the one-touch buttons are still there.
