- zacharypinter 16y agoI wonder how much something like this would cost if produced in bulk. I would love to run some of the iPad apps as a digital whiteboard.
- dmazin 16y agoReally? You are speculating about 42'' phones being produced in bulk?
- jonknee 16y agoI think he's speculating more about 42" multitouch surfaces being produced in bulk.
- zck 16y agoMicrosoft Surface sells for $12,500: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/Pages/HowToBuy/HowToBuy.aspx http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en/us/Pages/HowToBuy/HowToB... . It's only 30 inches, but you're also getting software when you buy it.
- bkudria 16y agoI'm pretty sure you can't actually buy them, any more. I know someone who tried.
- younata 16y agomy university acquired one this past fall. Not sure if it was donated (probably) or the CS department just decided "we want one" and got it. Right now, it just sits in a corner on the third floor of our CS building, waiting for people to come buy and play chess or whatever. It's not used much.
- dstein 16y agoTouchscreen sensitive computer monitors are way overdue. They've had them in Kiosks forever, and I could never understand why they never tried building monitors with that functionality built right in. I want a Star Trek console already!!
- lunaru 16y agoMicrosoft and their various 3rd party hardware vendors have been selling Windows 7 with touch screen monitors for a very long time now. Of course, no one really knows that because they're usually just sitting there at the local Fry's with no interest.
- itg 16y agoGorilla arm. Kiosks are one thing since you just briefly interact with them.
- billmcneale 16y agoGreat, more Android fragmentation.
- yellowbkpk 16y agoWhen walking through Building 43 on Google's campus for the Summer of Code Mentor's Summit I saw a version of this for the Nexus One. It was powered off but it looked like it responded to touch as well.
- martey 16y agoThe second paragraph of the TechCrunch article states that "unlike the giant Nexus Ones that Google produced last year, which just played a looping video of the UI, this giant Nexus S actually works."
- Fateasy 16y agoWould be cool to play Angry Birds on that!
