From the NYTimes, a story about a prototype interactive computer screen which is projected into the air, call Heliodisplay. In my former life of extensive business travel, it was obvious that the key limitation on reducing the size and weight of portable computers is the display. The Heliodisplay is nowhere near ready for that application - hell, it's not even clear if it's ready at all - but I find display improvements like this and digital ink to be exciting parts of technological development. At least, it was exciting when I was lugging a laptop with me everywhere. (Link via Amygdala.)
Thank you for the link. Please note that "Amygdalagf" is not the name of my blog, nor even a word. Thanks.
