There may be all sorts of uses in the future. 

Right now its obvious use is as a game controller...but gesture controls
could allow a pad or LCD screen to be controlled from a distance rather than
direct contact. Of course any app would have to have face-recognition and
the ability to focus. Just think what a cat could do as it ran by. ;-)

Hi Jim

Thanks! Very interesting.
Now what to use this for? Mostly surrounded by administrative people, I have
a hard time finding some purpose for everyday's use.
Any ideas? Room control for example?

The kinetic version of Windows8 is out. 

Now we can look forward to a version that will run on all the netpad,
Smartphone and touch screen PCs the have Windows 8 installed. The list of
features that is now in the first release and subsequent releases is
impressive, to say the least.
