Magic Wall Anyone?

Steven W Johnson · 03-17-2009, 07:04 AM

I am in need of a BIG asset.

To tell my story.

The GADGET that truly fits the bill in this case is John King's (CNN - State of the Nation - Sundays) wildly popular Magic Wall touch screen / whiz bang "da bomb" tool

I'm in the Seattle area.

Anyone know where I can get my hands on one of these puppies for a few hours?

Poor man's version, perhaps?

Thanks!

You could hook a pc up to an LCD TV and have someone move the mouse and zoom tools in sync with your fingers.

Heya Brad,

That's a REALLY low-tech, and very sneaky (and trick) idea!

I remember working on an old HP touchscreen - circa 1982 - and then they just fell off the face of the earth for two decades, now they are back, bigger and badder than ever.

If I had a big screen LCD, I'd do that (good excuse to BUY one, I suppose), but I don't - hoping to find some place that can lease time on one - although I know they take some training and getting used to. Guess I better look up my old Portland, OR weatherman Rob Marciano (moved up in the world to CNN) - he's getting pretty darn good at "the wall"

Forget the Magic Wall:

Forget The Magic Wall. CNN Now Has Holograms

But if you must, you can get one here for $100k and then, if allowed, return it within 7 days...

Neiman Marcus to sell Perceptive Pixel's Interactive Media Wall: yours for $100k

The article says it's 10 times the cost of something similar by Microsoft found here:

Microsoft Surface hands-on

Have fun,

Haha... ONLY 100 large?

I'll buy THREE and pass em out to my team! hahaha

10 large...getting warmer - gotta be one for rent in these parts (Microsoft-land) at that price.

Thanks for the links, BizB!
