Are We Going To See The PlayTable Soon?

- Warner Crocker

Mary Jo Foley believes Microsoft is about to put its cards on the table when it comes to its PlayTable technology. If you caught the Bill Gates Keynote during CES 2006 you saw him demonstrate the technology in an impressive display where he set his cellphone on the table and was able to manipulate the data from it by using touch on the table.

I happen to think this kind of development is very cool and look foward to where it is going. I can imagine a PlayTable in the living room that replaces a remote for viewing media among other uses. I can also imagine what happens when wiping up the inevitable spill.

so we'll say that the kids spilled juice on the table, and while wiping up the mess the table assumes you turn master volume to max and loud chaos ensues?

Я так поняла, что это проекция, как в фильмоскопе?

Concept, concept and concept. Most likely these of kind of things will never get developed. It will most likely get developed when we get a heart attack at age 55.
