Today's "Wow" moment - Microsoft Surface

Ready for something completely different?

Ever seen the movie 'Minority Report'? One step closer. Microsoft just announced a new product, "Microsoft Surface". You have to watch the videos to appreciate this.

• First check out the video that Major Nelson posted for a good overview (this is where I first caught the news - thanks Major).
• Then take a look at the official Surface website
• The Seattle PI has a writeup with more videos
• BBC News has posted a story
• Robert Scoble seems excited - "surface computing is real and is wild. I want one of these in my house, but it is too expensive". Scoble previously posted videos of the product whilst it was still a research prototype

Great stuff; especially as I was thinking about buying a new coffee table anyway. I'm guessing that these won't be available at staff discount for some time though.
