But really?

How many people are going to jump at the chance of owning one of these? An expensive item just to use as a coffee table or to accidentally throw your car-keys onto.

Even with a wifi system to interface with cameras and other gadgets i'm really struggling to see a use for it in the home, hotels maybe, labelled "the new and swanky information point".

I can't even look at the thing without thinking of the spoof video was out earlier this year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZrr7AZ9nCY
“One day, your computer will be a big-as* table.”
