http://www.ted.com Jeff Han demonstrates — for the first time publicly — his intuitive, "interface-free," touch-driven computer screen, which can be manipulated intuitively with the fingertips, and responds to varying levels of pressure. It bears a striking resemblance to Apple's new iPhone ... Jeff Han is a research scientist for New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. (Recorded February 2006 in Monterey, CA. Duration: 09:32)

i want one! I've been wanting something like this for years to make music composition a much more intuitive process than mouse clicking.

I'd reserve judgement, first. I imagine this technology will have tremendous applications. While I don't see this replacing our current methods of interface, I do believe this new approach will be a wonderful addition.

I own a Toughbook laptop with a touch screen and my experience is that it works better than first thought. Some application naturally work better with touch while others would need significant change to be as effective as using a keyboard/mouse.
