This is one of the best things MS has come out with in a while. I have heard talk that this was more of something they purchased than developed from the ground up. I think the biggest fall back may be that it will all be proprietary and require deals with MS to develop for it. This will lock out potential userful features. But I'm just speculating on that.

That is why I mentioned that a slanted orientation would be preferrable. If it's too vertical (like flat on the wall), the wrists would be bent too much. Too horizontal, like a table top, and the neck will be strained. Maybe a tilted panel with a horizontally flat extension to put devices on... @Sandy: The hardware *and* the price... :) @Freddy: I absolutely agree.

Users don't want to sit with their neck staring down, that will crink their neck. I look at something like this and think "will the end user actually want to use this."
