Oh come on! That's _so_ 2006. And just a very inelegant patch which  
really doesn't equate with what the iPhone brings: direct  
manipulation of objects of screen, in real time. Like real life, but  
better.

No, my vote goes for the Jon, the Steve and the rest of the crew to  
come up with a completely new display concept, one that will  
magically float on the table (not really floating, but you get the  
idea) and will move to any position like magic, probably using some  
advanced hydraulic system.

I mean, sounds crazy but so did the whole iPhone thing before we saw it.
