I'm told that tonight, at 12:01am EST (okay, so tomorrow), the division of Microsoft that launched the Xbox and the Zune will unveil something very special . What it is, we do not know for sure, but it's "something totally new coming out of the Entertainment and Devices division, and it's going to change the way people interact with technology." The email (which was not a tip but rather was mistakenly sent to me through official channels) also stated that "you really have to see it to believe it." How tantalizing.

Change the way we interact with technology, huh? We'll see...

If it's anything less than a telepathic input device, I'll be disappointed.

Yup, you're right. Dave guessed it first though. I figured that's what it was too.

Introducing... Microsoft Surface

More here.

Too bad it's $10,000. Maybe another company will release a similar multitouch interface for the home soon. I'd take one.
