That is very smart but it's not entirely like Minority Report, where they could physically pick up images and move them around n stuff.

But still, it shows the potential for a seamless human/computer interface. The amount of control one can have via touchscreen is immense (as demonstrated in that clip). I mean we have a wide variety of applications, from photo galleries to map reading... even games.

So I'm hoping this technology will be readily available soon tp common PC users soon. I was most impressed.

I saw this clip a little while ago and it hasn't stopped being impressive. Lots of potential, but we all need to see one killer app for it.
Taking all bets on it being some sorta porno :D
