Thanks for the link, it's really interesting. The young woman's typing speed on her calculator is amazing ! It seems that Japanese people's ability to bring their skills to perfection is still there, whatever technology they use.

I think, that even a good OCR scanner would be slower than this young woman, but it would be cheaper. If she however were a pianist, she couldn't be replaced easily.

It is amazing, that the calculator buttons are working in this speed perfectly. It shows that a smartphone app can never replace a good calculator.

Yeah, the quality of the calculator really blew me away, the mechanical design for preventing misses, the electrical design dealing with bounce and rollover, and the software for handling the rollover and input speed.
