If I spill tea on Microsoft's interactive coffee table, will it clean it up for me?

Microsoft's "Surface' coffee table is an interactive touch sensitive computer. Multiple users can interact with the machine by touching or dragging their fingertips , photo's, a paint brush etc. accross the screen. It's also, designed to work in unison with other pre bar-coded gadgets and objects such as phones, cameras, music players and keycards.The possibliltes for this gizmo are endless, excluding perhaps, actually functioning as a coffee table.

Think, the fictional technology seen in the film" Minority Report" minus the gloves and you've got the gist.

The "Microsoft Surface" video below reveals all.

If you fancy a giggle watch "Microsoft Surface - The Parody" by the cheeky sods at SarcasaticGamer.com. It's really funny.

Available from Ikea as a flatpack http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
