I could also see some applications for a Blackberry style wheel, for

Futuristic for some countries :-)

My Japanese mobile has a touch strip, and I bought it in Q2 2004. It
made scrolling through texts and sites very easy and the friction
provided by the slightly rubbery strip made for some great feedback
(touching a touch screen is different than sliding on a touch strip,
despite the misleading names).
