Technology is progressing every day, and it appears that things that were once only in movies such as The Minority Report are making their transition into everyday life, such as the amazing touchscreen that was used in the movie.

While touch sensing is commonplace for single points of contact, such as on PDA's and few computers,
multi-touch sensing allows users to interact with systems with multiple fingers at the same time.

When I read your intro, Keebs, I was like "Pfft.. Hype." Then I watched the video. It is like the Minority Report UI.

Now that’s cool. One of the things I liked about that film was the believable technology. (short of the whole predicting the future with crack babies thing)

When we get those on the market, it will be pretty cool.

Neat stuff though I don't know why Minority Report gets billed as innovating the thing though.
