It looked like the usual MS launch of ’something new’ as it was a page with little on it except for a flash object it the middle.

But I must admit the product on the page intrigued me, I do believe if MS Surface is aimed at the right people and lives up to it’s promise it could really be something exciting!

I should explain…

The virtual concierge service also seems quite interesting, you can use the Surface to plan a route, and send it to your PDA. This could be an interesting feature.

As I said before, I think the surface could really do well, if Microsoft can create worthy applications and genuine uses for it. I like the idea of it being in bars/restaurants and customers being able to make there order using the Surface, but how practical it is remains to be seen.

There is one other thing that could make or break the surface, the price. Microsoft don’t seem to give an idea of the price of the Surface on the site.

If you like the sound of the surface, you can see it for yourself at http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
