i saw it today, and i think its amazing, when it will be available,
This product is very nice. I feel the cost of this product will be very height. People will think twice before buying this but i feel it will be best for office use. If this "Surface PC" or the Table PC is also been integrated with a scanner on the surface of the table then it will become great and feeding information like contact information from business card to Address book, and scanning photos and mailing them and much more things will become faster, since every thing will be on the desk it will be very comfortable and easy to interact.
The cost of the device is not too high. It is estimated to be $5000-$10000. However the costs of the servers and the complete deployment will add up cost but surely worth i guess! Also, the partners have access to this and articles suggest that US military applications have already started using this. Not sure when the commercial use release be, but yes it is there for all to explore.
Microsoft has all this bundled with their package release of .net 3.0/Silverlight ....and so on. HTH - Dipesh
