Sweet, just in time? Or did I miss it? :S

By the looks of the time, i'm just in time. They just said to turn off cell phones, etc. woo.

750kbps Fo Me!

Haha that was pretty good!

Well, it's over now. They didn't really reveal much that was totally new and exciting. Most of the new things that they talked about have already been shown on the Internet (or are actually already available for use).

I think the most exciting thing was the image recognition technology that Bill Gates talked about near the end. That would be awesome to move around a camera phone, and the phone show you information about what it is seeing. Or better yet, what if we had some kind of glasses that could do that? WOOOW!!!

Okay, I have just invented something new. Glasses that can project information onto the lens, have a built-in camera, and are controlled by your cell phone. The camera can recognize hand motion, so you can control buttons and menus that are projected onto the glasses.

Yes, you might look a little strange using it, but it would be awesome!

Lol. Yeah it was good. I think that Microsoft Surface thing will take off if the price gets lowered a bit. Also it looked like Bill was having some troubles with the touch sensitivity on it. Color wheel was great though lol. That thing would be awesome if it was turned into a big graphics application.

"Adobe Photoshop Surface"

Hah! I bet you all thought I was full of shit! Well take a look at this:
