This MG Sieger story is 32 minutes old, and it was posted here 25 minutes ago. Same thing with every John Gruber post. Laptops have already been sold without mice for over a decade - they have trackpads (or the buttonless clickpads). But of course many are going to still use the mouse for things such as playing games on a Windows PC, touch screen or not. And the mouse is more efficient if you are using it all day (like for work), as you don't have to reach up to the screen all the time (which is why the Minority Report stuff doesn't work well in real life). This is also why for example the Asus Slate comes with a bluetooth keyboard, because using an onscreen keyboard all day long for example would be horrible and slow. A more interesting question is whether the stylus will come back or not. The HTC Flyer with stylus had over 3 million pre-orders, and the Tablet PCs like the HP tm2t or Lenovo tablets are starting to come down in price.
