This thing's going to suck unless those buttons come on the side of the touch screen or something. As is, I'm probably not going to buy it.

Why the hell did you clutter up the first page with pictures? One with the rest inside the news story would have sufficed.

V3 used to auto page break at a certain point, added the manual tag now. Thanks for the headsup!

"3D Pointing "tracks the movement of the user's finger, including distance, to manipulate an object on screen""

Wonderful...because it was not hard enough to control a touchscreen already, let's track their finger before they even touch the screen! Oh, and it isn't the kind of 3D that pops out at you...at best, it is the kind of 3D that makes the appearance of depth...so when you try to touch something that is deeper into the image, you have to move your finger farther away...either that, or in order to touch things that are right in front of you, you will have to move your finger to the outer reaches of the finger monitor, and hold it there as you move 2 demensionaly.

I suspect ebay will have plenty of these things before Xmas.

Are you illiterate. It says, right above the pictures "Although the mockup is definitely a fake, it is still a pretty cool idea. Here are all the pictures posted: "

It's not the real thing...
