Today it is released but for the entertainment business and enterprise. Microsoft presents a whole new paradigm for computing through &lt;A class="" href="http://www.microsoft.com/surface/" mce_href="http://www.microsoft.com/surface/"&gt;Microsoft Surface&lt;/A&gt;. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It is now a reality that it will be released as a show case in one of shertaon's hotels and possibly by other companies like T-Mobile. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I am going for a conference introducing Microsoft Surface computing this week hopefully and try it my self.&amp;nbsp;I hope to play around with it and maybe take some kewl photos. :)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P mce_keep="true"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Anyway i see the surface computing is still too expensive for the home user as it is still priced 5000 - 10,000. WOW, i don't think alot of families would put money in such a gadget not now. further, i think it would be nice if it includes more applications such as integrating media center and maybe replacing the xbox :) who knows!!&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is one of the applications for surface computing showing future restaurants using it as a way for handling customer orders. very Kewl !!!&lt;/P&gt;
