I was impressed by how accurately it detected input from multiple users. While a large number of the apps are only for technology demonstration purposes, it is easy to see how this could indeed become a ubiquitous appliance in many commercial settings. Here are some videos from units on display at MIX 08 including a Snow Board Customization App. http://www.4tay.com/blogs/Adam-Parker/Microsoft-Surface-Demonstration-at-MIX-08/1/1/701/ This sure has come a long way from their sample unit in Redmond. Only thing left is a good/quick way of capturing user input (text). I finally got to play around with one of these in person. I was impressed by how accurately it detected input from multiple users.

That's what I thought when I first witnessed the potential of Surface. No other Microsoft technology is as forward thinking and sexy. If you ever get the chance of getting your hands on Surface I highly recommend that you don't pass it up. It will make you smile! Amazing.
