    Mozilla’s Concept Series, a fine example of crowdsourcing, has hatched an idea for a smartphone - Seabird. The Seabird is designed to eradicate a few “frustrating physical interactions” by tossing in motion capture and projected keyboards. With this projector, the Seabird could function as a netbook. Larry Dignan has more in his blog.

    The phone would create a virtual keyboard and trackpad for better typing.

    At this point, Mozilla is only sharing ideas. It has no plans to manufacture the Seabird.
