I'm sure it wasn't their idea - I saw demo videos for this concept ages 
ago and it wasn't Microsoft branded then. They've just bought the idea 
from someone else and slapped some Microsoft branding all over it - 
what's new there then??

In terms of usability - looks like it'd be quite fun to play with for 10 
minutes...
