Since the Azeron is trying to oust the Mouse and Keyboard gaming style, it wouldn’t be fair to pass over its cost in comparison to the latter. A mouse and keyboard that both function well for gaming can run you, at its cheapest, around 30 to 40 dollars (sometimes less!).
The Azeron Compact, in its current form and without any extra customization, will run you a minimum of $150. That’s quite a lot for something that is a “cheapest option available”, and that price doesn’t even take into account the cost of a mouse on top of it. Another point worth making is that a keyboard, even for someone used to the Azeron, is still going to be the primary peripheral for typing. Whether for media browser or article writing, the Azeron just isn’t going to compare to a keyboard unless its user has never used anything else, which is an unlikely scenario, to say the least.
