UI update

Just a quick update to an older post concerning UI in the future. At that time I said Nintendo (Wii) and Apple "get it" and to expect similar UIs to emerge. I also said that I expect deviceless UIs, meaning physical gestures, touch control, etc., to get big (I know there is actually a device involved, but not an obvious to the user one).

Here are three new devices/systems:
Wii like motion controllers from

• Microsoft, and
  
• Sony

and a TV that has no remote - it reads your hand gestures.

Last, a device like a huge iPod touch (but it isn't focused on music/video) - the CrunchPad.
