Ok.. this is frikkin cool. I saw Jeff Han’s TED Presentation about touchscreens last week, but this is an even better demo of the capabilities. Ooo. [Thanks James]
Wait, so now I like touchscreens? Yes, I know I’ve been going around trash talking the iPhone for its lack of tactile feedback.. But, maybe I’m warming up to the idea. *If* the UI can provide sufficient visual feedback, then perhaps it will work… That said, the awesomest visual feedback will do me no good if i’m trying to use my phone without looking at the screen. Walt Mossberg’s initial impression of the iPhone was favorable, so.. who knows.. we’ll see.
Anyone remember the Atari 800 & Atari 400? The 800 had a real keyboard, and the 400 had this goofy membrane keyboard thing that was just awful. Yah, touchscreen is very different, but I’m just sayin..
Man.. Atari 800. Rock on.

Whoo hoo. Atari 800 rocks! I had two of ‘em as a kid, and I think both are still in my parents’ basement.
