AHHHH, i'm so excited. I just saw this video and thought how much of a help it would be for us animators... and other things aswell i guess. Design apps, music, photo, browsing... anything i guess.

Yes, I love this interface too, and I was pleased to see the new iPhones use a few ideas like that. Using the two fingers to rotate, or zoom in or out for example. Alas, they didn't think to include an animation program on those phones. What do you think, who's more likely to pick up something like this: Wacom, or Tablet PCs?

I reckon tablet PC's might jump at this first - but i can imagine a huge price jump for this type of interface, and the software you would need to implement it.

Wacom could possibly make technology for a usb, 'sort of pen tablet' option. Which would probably be more accessible money and driver/software wise.

I would kill for this type of interface though, using ableton live would be a million times faster. Graphics software... well... we all know how more streamline using doing it would be!

Bring on the next gen of user interface.
