This video affected me more emotionally than a full-length film ever has;  I seriously shed a tear.  The user experience on this device is like nothing I have ever seen, it is elegantly beautiful.  I never thought as myself as a tablet kind of person mostly because its functionality is based on a large smartphone except without the phone part, but this, this is something different altogether.  This is utilitarian, functional and fashionable; something I can use every day for work, my personal projects and day to day play.  I have to commend Microsoft for their innovative research in the user experience realm as of late, but I also condemn them for not manufacturing this device.  Why do you have to tease us so much?

Knowing Microsoft, I doubt they will let another company buy their hard work to make this product a reality.  Like Robbie Bach said, the device won’t exist, but he’s “absolutely confident… a bunch of that innovation will show up in Microsoft products.”  Guess we’ll have to see, but for now, I’ll just go comfort myself with a tub of ice cream and a lot of beer.
