I actually think I would prefer the key confirmation. I tried typing on an iPhone the other day, and it was NOT a pleasant experience. I hit the keys I wanted maybe 10% of the time, including all the times I backspaced trying to correct the numerous errors. It was ridiculous. There needs to be something to facilitate quicker typing. If, by key confirmation, you mean you have to hit "ok" after each keystroke, then that does defeat anything. But if it truly gives button-like keypress feedback, and it facilitates greater speed and accuracy, I'm all for it. Does anyone know for sure if this has a Marvell processor? I’m curious.
