I wonder how long before Microsoft steals these ideas :1orglaugh

that is pretty awesome indeed :thumbsup

I was bored.

Nice....

the problem with "the future of..."-videos: it never happens. We're promised the sickest shit in 4 years and nothing every finds its way to the consumer.

Why? Because most of the time the ideas rely on novelty-value rather than actual improved functionality.

For example, your fingers also funtion as a mouse. Quite a lot of people don't have the motor skills to use their finger as a mousepointer.

Also, with a nice monitor, you can have windows stacked in al kinds of ways that are better than the linear way that's being shown. Grouping of the apps? As if that wasn't around already?

I say: cool thing, great for games(THAT's what they should introduce it with, NOT apps), but probably not going to be used for another 10-15 years.

that was sweet

i missed some pussy close-ups in that video

All you have to do is squeeze :1orglaugh

very nice!

And where would you put your keyboard if you had such a sensor pad in front of you?

Okay, watched it to the end. The keyboard would be placed behind the big touch screen.
Must be a nightmare for gamers...

I would think a small adaptation would turn the thing itself into a keyboard.

yeah, as someone said earlier, I think this would best suit the gaming world.

that is quite interesting... but for some reason I miss the keyboard...

Read thread > draw conclusions.

the idea sucks, big time, imho...

I would buy this in a second, at just about any cost!
Im sure this is already possible i also think something like this possible right now, lets just hope someone leaps into actually marketing this.
