Microsoft's new SURFACE

This will revolutionize pda, business lunches, sightseeing, schoolwork etc.
We all saw Tom Cruise in that movie where he was pointing and moving icons on a virtual screen/wall. We are not too far off from that now.
I have to stop at the Starwood Sheraton next month and see if they have one of the new tabletop multi-touch computers in the lobby.One of the "concepts" from the conecept video is we will be able to lay your device onto the tabletop and would magically(el Bluetooth I suppose) zap info, photos, videos, documents into your phone, pda, laptop etc.
It shows a man laying down his phone, his contacts appear on the tabletop map as star icons, he taps them (presumably) to add them ((or DELETE them)) from his plans.
HOW freaking cool is that?
God, I want to be a youngster in 50 years. How magnificent this world will be technologically....if we aren't all dead by then.

I can see it too


The moon, although not full, sparked a pleasant memory tonight.
I said to someone once in a past life....oh, about 11 years ago...
Me: "I tell ya' what"
Him: "What?"
Me: "Look up"
Him: "Okay, what am I looking for?"
Me: "Look at the moon, can you see it?"
Him: "Yeah, I see it"
Me: "I see it too, see, we aren't that far away"
Him: "Yeah"

I loved you....thanks for the memory
