PlayTable, er Surface Computing

Andy Wilson. Remember the guy I introduced you to at Microsoft Research? Funny, he was at the Maker Faire last weekend talking to everyone and showing off his latest thing. He builds demos for Bill Gates and he was the one who first showed me the PlayTable. Now called “Surface Computing.”

Microsoft's PlayTable Coming Soon?

I’ve been waiting for the PlayTable for quite a while. Mary Jo Foley (our favorite Microsoft Watcher) says it’s coming soon. The demos I saw at Microsoft’s TechFest a couple of years back were stunning. If the product is even 1/2 as good as the demo this one will catch everyone by surprise. Oh, funny aside? Our favorite name for our new kid? It’s Milan. And I didn’t know until today that the code-name for the PlayTable is Milan.
