Mirosoft Surface has future in homes

Microsoft’s Principal Researcher, Bill Buxton, recently had a lengthy interview with The Globe and Mail. According to him, the next wave in technology would be somewhat akin to Microsoft’s Surface, where future iterations will be much thinner (no thicker than a sheet of glass, in fact), while falling under the much more affordable category for average Joes like us to be able to bring one home. Apart from that, Bill says that cameras will be integrated right into the device itself to turn it into a low-cost, in home device. We want to see prototypes by the next year, Bill, and will keep our fingers crossed that your prediction of such implementation by 2013 be right on the money.
