Considering everything is looking to be moving towards complete digital (e-paper, OLED etc), the idea of enforcing technology on something that is both ‘old’ and entirely analogue is very interesting.

Microsoft have unveiled a table reminiscent of the iPhone, allowing complete control and integration with exisiting technology such as mobile phones and mp3 players. Interesting idea, not sure yet on the concept of building it into a table but still very clever.
