Last I heard they were selling to business customers only. It has been in a couple movies/shows. First one I remember seeing it in was Eureka! - which is a great show BTW :P

nah, it relies mainly on a touch-based interface, but a bluetooth keyboard could be used i guess (sold separately)

as for the mouse, i wouldn't even want one, controlling everything in a little table with my fingers would make me feel like god until I get yelled at for using the thing for more than 14 hours a day :(
