This new technology is excellent! I have played around with it, and although you need to clean your monitor quite often because of all the finger prints, it's extreemly clever and very useful, but I was thinking that they have all this technology and they don't make a wider scale out of it, they have touch sensitive palm tops, laptops and televisions, but why can't they encorporate this into gaming? I would find this especially useful for games such as Red Alert, but most games could find this useful, with FPSs, you could have a list of guns at the bottom the the screen and select them that way, other games would be as easy, except for footall games, but where theres a will theres a way.
I am annoyed that this hasn't happened yet as it has been acessable for a long time now and lots of consoles have been released since.
