this is true. i work with superultrahightech stuff (i'm an interactive museum installation developer, using cameras and computer vision tracking to drive procedurally-generated graphics projections), and each year i'm becoming increasingly cynical.

my immediate response is, so what? why do i want a device with multi-touch, gestures, environmental sensors, other than because Steve Jobs tells me I do?

oh, and i wrote this on an all organically grown, assembled by an
Australian Pygmy co-op, cooled by the pyramid crystal power laptop.  did
i mention it's free trade?

bravo sir! :-)
