It's not quite as Holodeck as you think. It's just a pulse of sound on your hand. You can still move your hand through everything, as they were still doing in that video. No one's going to be walking on holographic stairs, that's for sure. On the plus side, the "safeties" don't yet need to be invented (and promptly turned off whenever the system glitches, killing thousands worldwide).

The iPad is totally a PADD though.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
