Probably best to just use your index finger.
the hands have had to shift up from the regular holding position showing its not easy to reach....
doesn't look as ghastly though in the hands as it does against white on the first pics.
edit: backlit ?

I love how so many people are slagging it off before they've even held it.
Those pics show that it's not such a stupid design at all, although it still appears to be way too pricey.

Not bad actually, Looked shocking before, But definately wrong.
It's OK because this is the internet.
Possibly foolishly ordered one of these. Couldn't resist, it's out on friday and for less than £18 even if its rubbish i won't feel too let down. Just getting fed up of having to use the XMB keyboard when messaging people and it also means i'll be able to use the 'net if the missus has stolen the PC.

You could just plug in a cheap USB keyboard?
Tried that, but it's just clutter tbh, does my nut. Also i only own one keyboard so would need another, this only costs a tenner more so thought i'd take a chance.
I just put a pre-order in for this. It's actually out this Friday according to all the retail websites I have just visited. Anyway, just saw an advert for the product so thought I would share it.

Touch pad looks pretty sweet. I wonder if any games will take advantage of it?
Actually, you would be able to use it with the in game shop browser for MGO but obviously that is a non-competitive use of the device but a use nonetheless. Can't see it being used to any great effect in games but you never know...
The official Sony keypad does look a little unorthodox and uncomfortable but I have decided to give it a chance as I have been needing a keyboard for my PS3 for some time now and playing LittleBigPlanet earlier with TurnipHead for a couple of hours has given me the will and an excuse. If it's not comfortable or I don't like it it'll be refund / bay of E time. Still, I use my xbox360 one a lot and if this one is as comfortable, then I can see myself keeping it.
Just ordered this for <£18 (along with Resistance 2 
).
I'm using a Logitech DiNovo Mini at the moment - well "using" is a relative term, as I've only used it for text input about twice! Will sell that on, as it's really not worth me having it for the amount it gets used.
And as Streeteh said, can't be doing with massive wired keyboards cluttering up the living room, so the Sony gizmo looks cheap and cheerful!
