Yahoo has posted a photo of a virtual keyboard. Looks cool, although I'm not sure how it works.... Besides, just like prototype cars, this sort of stuff rarely surfaces again once the trade show packs up. The rapid development of some areas of computing/hardware blind us to the lack of development in others. While entire generations of processors and RAM have gone by; most people are still using a CRT monitor, standard keyboard, standard mouse, etc. The only real input device advances that have made it into homes are the odd ergonomic or wireless keyboard; and if you've just bought a computer perhaps an optical mouse. We're a way off from when Windows XP's icons are accurate - showing LCD/flat monitors, for instance. At least one corporation is being a tad wishful about what your average joe has sitting on their desk.
