Here is an interesting video about TouchTable's $59,000.00 system:
ESRI's ArcGIS running on a TouchTable:
The application supports collaboration. People can interact with one another around a single table, with others at remote tables, and people using laptops and mobile devices out in the field.

Focused on interactive multimedia and emerging technologies to enhance the lives of people as they collaborate, create, learn, work, and play.

Video: Photosynth Demonstration
Microsoft Live Labs: Photosynth
"The Photosynth Technology Preview is a taste of the newest - and, we hope, most exciting - way to view photos on a computer. Our software takes a large collection of photos of a place or an object, analyzes them for similarities, and then displays the photos in a reconstructed three-dimensional space, showing you how each one relates to the next.
In our collections, you can access gigabytes of photos in seconds, view a scene from nearly any angle, find similar photos with a single click, and zoom in to make the smallest detail as big as your monitor."
It looks like PhotoSynth has the potential to be used in creative, engaging ways in educational settings, especially for visual learnings. Imagine what students could do if given the opportunity to interact with PhotoSynth content on large screen displays!

About Touch Enabled Displays: YouTube Clip- One Guy's Dream of a Touch Screen iMac
My dream? I want an affordable, thin touch-screen WiFi/Bluetooth/RFID - enabled display, embedded in an adjustable drafting table.
This set-up would provide users with multiple options, depending on the nature of the task or leisure pursuit. If you are a parent or teacher, you easily imagine the possibilities for your kids.
In the meantime, here is one guy's dream about a touch screen iMac:
I need to create a video of my drafting-table version!
