It always seemed like an amazing way to speed-run repetitive strain injury to me.

Anything that requires that level of precision but offers basically zero range of motion just seems to force unnatural levels of tension in every muscle in your hand and wrist.

The things cause me agonising wrist pain within minutes of use, not something I’ve experienced with any modern (ie, larger than the postage stamp sizes of old) touchpad.

Good riddance.

The website also shows a large unpopulated section of PCB near the network jack with “PoE” silkscreened:

PoE built in could make this a very interesting device indeed.

Indeed, you will note that they carefully chose the moniker “Daily Active Uniques” and not “Daily Active Users”.

I think that speaks volumes, as humans are definitely harder to retain.
