I Want a Multi-Touch Screen

I am looking forward to being able to use a multi-touch screen on my monitor at work. I would even like to try it on my laptop. I spent a few minutes pretending my monitor currently has this technology built into it and I think there is potential to augment other pointing technologies like the standard desktop mice.

I did see this technology in action at Microsoft's headquarters a while back and it seems to have potential. Still, the mouse seems to have more granular control and is better for a number of tasks.

The good news is that when the software is ready, Philips will be there with a 52-inch multi-touch LCD screen. Additionally the company will be showing an 84-inch multi-touch display that is made up of four 42-inch panels joined together.
