If this works as well in reality as it does in the video, then wow!

Is there a Bluetooth version in the works?

Steve Jobs was right. After a while, your arm just wants to fall off...

Why a touch screen ?

@jmetsonmac Efficiency and why not, it's sad that in 2016 my MBP doesn't have a touchscreen and I can't have multiple cursors going at once. Though who wants to give people any license to touch their screen : )

@s_adibi @jmetsonmac why multiple cursors? you can mimic the touchscreen gestures on the trackpad.

Is there a version of this for Macbook Pro (Retina)?
Artem Goldman
Nice! Are you planning to make it for other screens?

And then you close your laptop... Ouch. Except that, it's a cool product.

@elie_teyssedou we put in a little safety buzzer that alerts you when you put your palm on the top of the display

does it work for macbook pro?
Giacomo Lawrance
Sadly no USB-C support, so no new Macbook for this. Any Windows support?

Their video needs to show how it can help one be more productive while using their product. Looks neat, but I'm curious.

@jabrueckner I totally agree with you. I think it's a fantastic product, but this marketing video is rather childish and doesn't show full potential of this product.

@jabrueckner I use a iPad pro next to my macbook all day long. I'm constantly accidentally tapping on my macbook pro screen. Showing how a touch screen computer would be more productive is a waste of time. This case has already been made with existing touchscreen devices. I am confident touch screen macs are just around the corner, until then this product is pretty interesting. I'm more curious about how accurate it is for tap accuracy on subtle movements, that would be the hardest part of this technical challenge I think.
