very cool.. I can see the extra desk space right now.

The best part is it'll handle having coffee spilt on it. Wipe the desk and you're back in action. :D

So in a couple years, the portable computer will consist of one of these keyboards, a box about as big as a phone, and some sunglasses that simulate a 21" monitor(already made). Pretty sweet. No more laptops?

Wow amazing. I have to agree with Greg on this and say that this is the next best thing for prevention of coffee spills ;)

Can't wait to get my hands on one!

good link :)

it reminds me of back street boys song where one dude is running space craft and touching virtual keys exactly same as shown in this picture, man i can see peoples imaginations are getting real.

This is so cool, but rather i would like pointer who can read my eyes where i am looking in my monitor and more better clicks it when my mind wants to, exactly as my brain orders my finger to type S (key).

No laptops idea is cool, but i sure want to buy one in my life. i don't have laptop yet. :bawling:

Ah, this is just the beginning. Sooner or later electronic sensors will be implanted into our fingertips, and we will be able to type into the air (no surface at all) and the computer will be able to interpret what we're typing. And for hunt-and-peckers among us, the sunglasses containing the monitor will also show a virtual representation of our fingers and the keyboard so that when we're typing on air we'll be able to see ourselves do it.

I was watching TLC the other day and they had made a computer game where you fly an airplane. They hooked him up to all sorts of sensors, and he was able to make the plane go up, down, left, right, just by thinking "Right, Right, Right". Was very interesting.
