I guess I'm jaded having seen the Northrop Grumman "touch table" a few times. Yesterday Microsoft announced its own version at the Wall Street Journal’s D: All Things Digital conference. It's called Microsoft Surface. And per the PR it's "the first in a new category of surface computing products from Microsoft that breaks down traditional barriers between people and technology. Surface turns an ordinary tabletop into a vibrant, dynamic surface that provides effortless interaction with all forms of digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects."
It should be out in public by year's end. One plus: it should be cheaper, right?
