Microsoft's new Surface technology interactive touchscreen.

This technology is coming near you. Love the credit card and camera demonstration. Don't accidentally leave your credit card on the table.

Wow. That looks so cool! Can you imagine putting one of those in your living room? Maybe they'll even include it with the house and have everything running off of that one panel? Portable ones? Very cool.

Panasonic made this kind of interactive screen as well. Interesting possibilities for games as well.

Very cool technology.. I first saw this a few months ago.

To me though, it looks like a big touch screen with some special M$ software. Overpriced if you ask me...(big iphone )
The thing that makes it different is that it interacts with things.

I think they had an early version of this in the movie 'the island' if I remember correctly.

This would be a really awesome thing to have... and if you could install linux, beryl and all that, it could be amazing. That would kind of defeat the purpose though, because it doesn't look like a huge deal of hardware development, mostly paying for software(IMO)
