Remember when we saw Jeff Han showing off the Multi-Touch screens, everyone was thinking it was the next Apple's thing, apparently it was Microsoft's.

Yes, I am an Apple-fanboy, but this is pretty damn cool.

Sweet.. Definitely the future of interfacing with compupers... but we'll also soon be able to just think of where to move the mouse cursor instead of having to use our hands ;)

It would be cool for a 15 minute 20 minute demo, imagine doing this 8 hours, your hands prolly tired as hell.

Biometric finger print scanners that are now being pimped off with today's PC's are stupid and a cheesy gimmick to push sales.

Eyeball scanning web cams is where it's at.

that looks nice, but imagine all the annoying advertisement that could be done on these screens .... *yAY* :| :x

the vids look promising, but i am interested as to how many of those 'promises' will amke the rat race in the end ;)
