Imagination is only the limit to what can be done with surface. But, will we be able to see some real applications soon?!
Most of the technology has been used by apple in their products ! The picture max and min techniques are used in iPhone ! the cd cover related to the music is used in iTunes ! Nothing new there M$ steals apple ideas exactly like what they did for the vista shame they apply old technology though ! hehehe and my opinion on this ? well it’s gonna be a failure, nothing more than an expensive toy; really; to get rich geeks laid ! “mrgreen”
I haven’t seen an Apple screen that can interact with devices like MS Surface, while object interaction there is Sony device like Minority Report tech, and Philips Entertaible that is an electronic board game.
Multi-Touch screen is known form the 80’s, Apple iPhone is not the first device with Multi-Touch screen, Microsoft was researching Multi-touch, they had something called Touchlight that was sold to EON Reality Inc.
By the way, maximizing and minimizing an Image on a Multi-Touch screen was first demonstrated by Jeff Y.Han in 2006 at TED (Technology Entertainment Design) conference, So Apple also steals ideas.
Microsoft is going to provide MS Surface to big companies like T-Mobil, if an individuals want one that gona cost form $5,000 to $10,000
