Holosuite here we come
Although that looks really cool there is something reassuring about the positive click when you press a key down.
Very cool portable keyboard though. Wonder what the power source is. Thats the only other thing that I would be concerned about. With plug in keyboards they don't use much but with that it would surely require its own power source

I'm sure they're going to lower the power consumption of those stuff WAYY down. Hmm.. Perhaps they'll replace the current keyboards with the virtual keyboard.. Yumm

Just have an inch thick LCD screen on your desk and a cordless mouse? Bit sparse. I have too much space on my desk for junk with the use of a cordless keyboard and mouse let alone a projected keyboard. I would have to clear a space for it everytime the junk took over my desk

At least with a projected keyboard, you can type ON your junk

But all I want to do is to TYPE junk

I don't think an uneven surface would be very good for typing on.
