Microsoft Surface


What do you guys think of this:
www.microsoft.com/surface/

Im quite liking the look of it. I really want to go to a restaurant where they have that because I know how difficult it is to share out the bill between several people etc.

I wonder when its gonna be releaced into the public properly?

Someone showed me that site today. I was like, woooah, that's some pretty innovative thinking there. Loved the way you would put your device onto the "surface" and it would interact with your device. I thought it looked great.

Are these things actually being used, or are they fantasy in development?

I think that some of the features are currently being used but most are still in development. I dont think any of it is a Fantasy but then I might be wrong.
