Are there any touchpads currently on the market that would support this?
I think I'd like to see the touch elements on each side of the keyboard rather than below—the positioning seems more natural and having to raise your arms to type seems like it would get really annoying.
Other than that, this looks like a novel idea for liberating ourselves from the tyranny of the mouse and window clutter.

Because the pad would have to be able to recognize 10 simulatneous touches. That said, it's not impossible. Look at this demo using Microsoft's WPF: http://codeclimber.net.nz/archive/2008/01/23/Minority-Report-like-interaction-in-WPF.aspx http://codeclimber.net.nz/archive/2008/01/23/Minority-Report... If you take what he's doing but mount the Wii remote under a desk with a clear screen above it. I believe that would give you what you'd need to duplicate the 10/GUI interface.
