    It's actually reasonably priced for being basically a 40" HDTV. I would be curious to see what else it is capable of.

    i think the kB was an digital image. I guess it needs a mouse for more than 2 clicks at the same time. I think this only registers two simultaneous touches.

    It still shocks me everyday how far things have come in such a relatively short time.

    For something that fancy, you'd think the promo video would be compiled with something OTHER than Windows Movie Maker.

    That desk is pretty damn slick, and $1200 is actually fairly reasonable for it. I assume you can program your own applications/widgets for it?

    I won't be getting it, since my Logitech G19 keyboard takes up a lot of desk real estate, but it's still a neat idea.
