OK people, here it is, the iPod of 2020 - the Microsoft Surface. Although slightly less portable than everyone's favorite gadget today, Microsoft is rigorously positioning its concept device for the kind of widespread consumer - and commercial - craze that only Apple have been able to drill up. As you can see from their flash video, good ol Gates and Co want every last one of us to be able to use this touchscreen surface to do everything - from consumer applications like organizing and sharing photos, music and video - to consumer uses like in-restaurant ordering and bill paying.

If you're as awed by this as we are, check out the hands-on demo over at Engadget!

WTF? Microsoft is not the first to come up with multi-touch. The writers at Luxist might want to check the facts about multi-touch before trying to credit Microsoft for bringing it first to the public. Google "Jeff Hans" and u will find out this news is really really...really...old. zzzzzzzz
