Can't Touch This

I found an article linked to from the page about the amazing new touchscreen technology I talked about on Thursday. It seems there are some similar items already in use but nothing quite like it. Apparently he has already sold one of the screens to the military for a significant amount of money. I'm curious who bought it and what they plan to use it for. The possibilities are limitless. The article goes more in depth in explaining how he came about the idea and the basic setup and how it works. Seems rather ingenious and obviously works pretty well. One of my initial concerns has been cleared up. The screen is smudge proof and highly durable. I definitely want one but I am not ready or able to pay six figures for it. I will have to wait until they become much more affordable like most others. Still, it's nice to see true innovators doing what they do and making cool new products for the rest of us to enjoy.
