I'm already looking forward to using the touch strip in the "professional" apps like Photoshop, but I really spend a lot more time with IDEs and specifically with Emacs. One of the frustrating things about my various keyboards is that the function keys are located in slightly different places. I already have to look down to use a specific function key. Emacs, by default, uses so many of the possible key chords using control and alt and even command modifiers on the Mac keyboard that users are expected to bind their own functions to some of the function keys. I'm wondering if the touch strip will be capable of simplifying my interaction with a complex interface like that presented by Emacs.
