Excellent new computer interface

OK - the blurb below sounds boring as hell. But check out the demos - I can immediately see how amazingly useful this would be. Wonder how long before Apple puts this interface on the iMac, or releases a 30" display and software for the Powermac?

Multi-Touch Interaction Research: "While touch sensing is commonplace for single points of contact, multi-touch sensing enables a user to interact with a system with more than one finger at a time, as in chording and bi-manual operations. Such sensing devices are inherently also able to accommodate multiple users simultaneously, which is especially useful for larger interaction scenarios such as interactive walls and tabletops."
