I've used one a little, and it's actually not that bad. You wouldn't want to get rid of your mouse and keyboard and use it full time, but it feels pretty natural to be able to poke at a link or swipe to scroll instead of reaching for the mouse. I'm not sure how much extra I'm willing to pay for that feature, but as an idea it's not completely daffy.
