haha, I love how I just mash up some existing technology and pull it out of my ass and it actually exists. But yeah, that's a great example of what i'm seeing in the future. No more 'sitting', no more 'i'll have to check that out when i get home'. With that particular interface, imagine that as you pick up a coffee cup it tells you the temp of the coffee, projecting it on the mug. The device could communicate with your coffeemaker, know how much coffee is left and ask you if you would like more, with a yes/no question on your coffee cup. Select yes and your automated coffee maker begins to make a fresh pot.
You pick up a coke. It displays the wikipedia of coke, its history, its ingredients (except for the secret ingredients of course), and drink alternatives. What other drinks Coka-Cola provides, its like watching something on youtube and then getting recommendations!
If we have devices in our home made to function with the 6th sense, turning channels, increasing volume, etc can all be done by just using your hands. You could look at the TV and get a rating on how good your picture is, then use software to adjust your color, contrast, brightness, etc to its peak quality levels all because the device can see the things you cant and measure it.
Just amazing, I cant wait to see this thing take-off in 3/5 years.
ABF/ Your points were also in Ryan's so they're spiritually included (aren't they?). But honestly I dont think you're going to listen to reason because you're so PC oriented you couldn't bear the idea that PC's, desktops in general, are going to be phased out. So instead of discussing, you would just yell your obscenities and shove your Scientology down our throats like you always do, Tom.
