Communicating that 'tactile' is the new way to work. The fact that it's more natural etc... My problem is that you would still have to suffer under Vista which isn't designed as a touch interface (neither is the current desktop Mac OS X for that matter). Until the desktop operating system can properly support gestures and a more tactile interface, the hardware innovation is largely irrelevant. The ad communicates a vision of the future and not the current capabilities. That's a bit dishonest. I thought it was interesting… Communicating that ‘tactile’ is the new way to work.
