    Yes, you’re correct. The speed in which people are developing new technology is scary. You can now have an unique conversation with a computer. On the other hand isn’t it good that people are innovation new technology not only to make them money to to make our life’s easier?

    the only reason that can be true is because people won’t remember how to live without it.

    who cares, the important point is that SspnddAccnt is right. Computer Technology is taking over the world and it is actually kind of sad. Maybe not, if you don’t worry about the future holds.

    It will not work for any camera, actually the camera must have wi-fi capability and be compatible. Mostly, just a wi-fi connection. If you familiar with Computer Networking, what it actually does is transfer the pictures on a wireless network. So virtually, they look as if they fall into the camera. What helps identify the camera is the infrared technology beneath the surface of the touchscreen.

    true, almost anything has a touch screen.
    but if we wanna go that way, the iphone would then be a small touchscreen register like the ones at applebees.

    maybe you get an electronic trash icon , put it on the tale and put the photos in

    I love Microsoft Surface, but won’t this be ideal for stealing information from Windows Mobile phones? Or would there have to be an established connection like with Bluetooth for information to be retrieved off my phone.

    How did the camera transfer the pictures directly to the computer? which cameras are equipped with this feature? and finally, when will this surface computer be available for individual purchase?

  17. green4strings says:

    i’m sure he’s joking. but…
    from what i can tell, you tap the picture and it shows a list of options and i’m sure delete is on that list. if not, it’s still in the works and those things will be addressed.

  18. thebranzuelachannel says:

    i had the same exact question, how do you delete those pictures? and apparently you cant.
