Another Nokia touchscreen rumour hits the web


Another day, another Nokia handset rumour, but this time it's a prototype handset with a touchscreen created from water

Nokia is getting to be one of the forerunners when it comes to handset rumours and today is no different.

Rendered pictures have popped up on the Internet of a touchscreen phone with a screen created apparently from water.

One of the main problems when using a virtual keyboard is the lack of precise haptic feedback, but this handset is more successful because the membrane underneath the screen gives more feedback.

In fact, the water raises and lowers keys as you type so it fees like you're tapping away on a conventional computer keyboard.

Smart, huh? Only thing is, there's no say on when, where or even whether this device will make it through the prototype stage.
