On a more serious note, he *was* playing a FPS game -- pretty cool, but how would he control both the shooting and the moving with one finger?]]>Dec 19th 2008 5:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 19th 2008 10:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 22nd 2008 2:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 19th 2008 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/
So I can touch the underside of the screen.

What?! Oh, yeah, because I'm always shoving my hands down my pants to play
with SOMETHING. Might as well give it a rest and play with this thing
instead.]]>Dec 19th 2008 6:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/think of anything off the top of my head that this could work on
besides electronic devices (cellphones, PMPs, tablets etc.). There is
just no way putting these in clothing and on jewelry is practical. Why
not call it how it is? A regular touchscreen has at least some
practicality for "high-tech clothing", but seriously, you would just
look like you were rubbing yourself in public all the time, and it
wouldn't even be easy to do.]]>Dec 19th 2008 6:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/
I'm always surprised when people don't immediately see a purpose that applies to themselves, they assume something is a bad / useless idea. Figure if they bothered to write that, they have SOME use in mind. MP3 players and cellphones are the obvious choice, and it'll hopefully find its way there too, but there are other places it can be used with MUCH better margins.

I hope you never have decision power in a company that does anything besides mass-market, mass-appeal, low-cost electronics.]]>Dec 19th 2008 6:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/
Plus, I was sort of going on what they showed when they said "high-tech clothing", which was a hand-bag with some guy trying to lift the weight of teh bag with one finger so he could tilt the screen even to see it. That doesn't work.

Obviously I know that there are other things that it could be used for, but lets be honest, it's not going to be jewelry and clothing.]]>Dec 19th 2008 6:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 19th 2008 6:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 19th 2008 7:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Dec 19th 2008 8:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/19/nanotouch-like-your-parents-lucidtouch-but-now-with-more-nano/Back to the drawing board I'd say, sooner or later you'll think up something that works, don''t give up hope.
