Surface Computing Touch Screen by Microsoft

I found this device fascinating. As an educator, many classrooms have the digital whiteboards that are typically placed vertically on a wall---some students are not always able to interact with the boards due to physical challenges. I imagine the Surface being wonderful way for those with vision challenges, physical challenges to be able to control the digital world more freely. I’m sure it will not be inexpensive, but the idea is great! As they said in Popular Science “It’s a coffee table sized iPhone”—imagine the possibilities. Check it out!!
