Featuring a holographic glass screen that goes transparent and a keyboard that turns opaque when turned off, it's slick and beautiful. And sure, a touch keyboard like this would be extremely annoying without haptic feedback and screens like that don't really exist yet, but it's an interesting look at what we'll be playing with a few years down the line. Despite the fact that this isn't an official Sony concept, we still think they should work at making it a reality. Check another image after the jump.

Microsoft is using the mulit-touch technology that they implemented into their Surface Table and porting it to normal computers. Check out the video above of a demo of a laptop modified to use multi-touch.

Will multi-touch displays replace the boring old mouse in the future? I'm highly skeptical, but it looks like enough money is being pumped into the technology that it'll have a shot at the mainstream soon enough. –Adam Frucci
