Fairly cool but very old news ;) heh

The only thing about it i feel is that PDAs are meant to be small and portable but to use this keyboard you need quite a lot of space and probably a flat surface which is uniform in colour (maybe even has to be a certain colour, like white) which means it takes up a huge amount of space and is limited to where it can be used in this way....

Cool stuff, we're not far from holographic videophone conversations, hehe :wink:

And wouldn't the projection on that PDA sense distance intersections?
In that case the size and material of the surface shouldn't matter.
