Madonna Touches The Surface

Madonna has been given Microsoft's new product 'Surface' as a thankyou gift for recording the song 'Hey You' from Live Earth.

In a blog on her website, she says "Steve Ballmer of Microsoft has sent me one of the best gifts I have ever received! It is called "Surface." It is a coffee-table shaped computer that responds to touch".

"In addition to thumbing through thousands of my favorite family photos, I can listen to my music collection watch videos, etc. My children have also had a blast fingerpainting without getting their hands dirty!"

"Steve jokingly referred to my post about the Xbox 360 Degrees! He said, "I assure you this product will not overheat!" I hope not! I will let you know if anything goes wrong with it!"

Surface bypasses the mouse and allows you to grab data with your hands and move information and objects around with natural gestures.

The device features a 30-inch tabletop screen which allows several people to use at one time.
