Wow, this looks awesome and should as hell make a big difference for folks holding a tablet in both hands. No more "Ok, lemme hold it in this hand and tap out the letters with this finger" or situations like it. I can already imagine myself using this keyboard extensively when I finally find a tablet I like enough to buy.
And definitely check out the video at:

Personally the only issues I see with the video demo are a) it's a very large tablet, obviously, and b) I would hope you could scale the keyboard but probably not. In that example in the video, if the actual 'keys' themselves were about 20% larger (to account for the larger screen/resolution) he probably wouldn't have made nearly as many booboos as he did.
Maybe they'll improve it as time goes by... on a 7" tablet like the NOOKColor this could change everything with respect to text input.
