Just a bit of wishin'....

Usefulness?
RE: Usefulness?
I use graffiti most of time when traveling. I would expect my speed and accuracy would be much higher using graffiti then a Thumbpad.
When I am in the office or at home I generally use my PPK. A folded PPK isn't that much larger to carry.

It's kind of sad for me, 'cause I see how under-utilized their handhelds are, while I find mine indispensable. Maybe a small, simple keypad will appeal to them, and help them get into a higher rate of usage with the devices.

This keyboard just adds to the bulk while tools like FitalyStamp keeps the compact size of the device.
So I am happy now with FitalyStamp on the run and the Thinkoutside Keyb for "desk type jobs".
RE: Usefulness?
I have the PPK for my Palm VIIx and have been considering getting one for my Clie (though it kind of irks me to have to pay another $99 for the same product; wish I could create an adapter). But the smaller form factor of the ThumbPad makes it more appealing, especially since I wouldn't always need a flat surface to use the keyboard on; I could just connect it and type away. Much handier, IMO. Of course, for other occasions, the folding keyboard is more appropriate. But if you're on the go, or can't really sit down and create the ideal set up in which to use the PPK, I feel this thumb keyboard would do the trick. Its mobility approaches that of a Blackberry or a two-way pager like the Talkabout.
I can't wait for one for the Clie to come out!
