@Zuofo: Unless you’re talking about something else, what Lenovo calls the “MultiTouch” screen is actually just a trade name for technology allowing you to use either pen or finger input, not multiple inputs at the same time. There’s still a chicken and egg problem with the inability of operating systems to support multi-touch, though I hope that Microsoft’s interest in Surface and Apple’s in iPhone means these will show up at some point in those two operating systems.

Will it be overpriced?

Yes.

But it might be cool tho. Guess we’ll just wait and see.

Finally! I’ve been waiting for this. My arms have taken enough beating from that horrible mouse. I can definitely see it useful is OSX, think Leopard crossed with iPhone.
