I dunno. Touch screens have proven to be a nifty interface, and this kind of implementation removes the whole "fingerprints on your nice big monitor" aspect. Hell, you could even hook it up to an old CRT monitor and still have touch-screen controls. I wouldn't mind being able to use it as second monitor dedicated to IM/IRC, myself.
