Microsoft has been around for a long time now and they've come up with some of the best software, computing systems, and computer components in the world.Most recently Microsoft has come out with a top of the line, brand new product; New Microsoft Technology is taking us to a whole new level.

Microsoft has quietly been developing a brand new product they are calling the "Milan."This is a brand new computing platform or as we know it today, a coffee table.This is no ordinary coffee table however; this is a surface computing coffee table.You can do much more than just place a cup of coffee on it.

How does it work?
Microsoft is calling it a surface computing system.It uses a variety of wireless protocols, readable tags, and shape recognition to bring the virtual and the real world together.The team which has been working on the "Milan" calls this "blended reality."It can be built with different wireless transceivers; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are just two examples of the capabilities of this table.

One of the coolest things about this new piece of technology is that it has a multitouch screen with scrolling and picture manipulation.It can accept input from different fingers and multiple users all at the same time.You can stretch, grab, and slide objects across the table.This is a serious piece of technology that allows multiple users to gather around and use.It is definitely designed for public spaces.

Why would you want one?
Well, besides the fact that it's one of the coolest pieces of technology out there today, there are many reasons why you or someone else might want to get one.

Because Microsoft has partnered up with one of the largest cell phone providers this little coffee table can come in handy with almost any cell phone user and provider; and here's how.You could walk into any T-Mobile store, grab a phone that you might be considering to purchase and place it on the surface of this table.The table can link with the phone or scan some type of code to identify what the product is.You will then see all of the information regarding the phone; prices, features, service plans, etc.You name it, it has it.You can even pay for the phone using the surface because it has a credit card reader built right into the table.You virtually wouldn't have to talk to a single employee if you didn't want to.You can walk into the start, pick a phone, put it on the table, pay for it, and leave.It's that simple.

This new Microsoft technology is even appealing to restaurants.When was the last time you ordered your food from your table and got to play games while you waited?Or how about your own kitchen?You can store recipes in our kitchen counter, stores can put catalogs in the tables, and you could even withdraw money from your bank account.You can see how this kind of technology can affect everyone.
