Wacom is no longer alone: http://www.touchco.com/

Nor Touchco: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQpr3W-YmcQ

What makes touchco and wacom make special is that their techonogies are pressure sensitive. Touchco is ahead of wacom as they made multitouch pressure sensitive. Touch and multitouch are not that special as you show in your movie, making it pressure sensitive however is.

I know... But it's CARDBOARD MADE!

hmmm touchco is gone ?

Maybe they got bought out?

If that is the case i hope it is by apple, so they can make something special out of 2nd gen ipad.

More touch features is not going to make the iPad any more "special".

So, the iPad is definitely not for me (who started computing life with a 2.5 Mhz (!) IBM XT and a Hercules monitor), once available this machine will much better suit my needs: http://www.genesi-usa.com/products/smartbook A development version of this smartbook is already on my desk, so I know that it is fantastic :)

You teaser deserve this nasty question: WHEN will customers be able to enjoy it?

Sorry, I don't know the dates :-( But you can see my devel kit in action, see:

I have now a very minimal openSUSE 11.2 running, and I hope to extend it once I got a little time.
