Comment on Is capacitive touch screen all hype? by Lir

does capacitive screens must have the mass or the volume of the human body to work? could it work with a battery? or any other electrical charged object? i have tried with a steel metal ball (30mm diameter) and it worked quite well without touching my body, i’m confused.
you mentioned the body’s electromagnetic field, would a magnet could compensate it?

The tablet market along with a range of numerous form-factor devices is still at an early stage of development. This is made possible by the combination of enabling technology and components and the development of a broad, international market that stems from both the 3+ billion mobile phone and large installed base of the UT industry including laptops and PCs. In addition, camera, cloud computing oriented OS and applications, and digital TV have become more developed such that they can help fuel the ‘Seat to the Street’ user experience. Tablets are one ‘screen’ type interface to what is becoming a more intertwined if not yet entirely common experience.

What appears to be on the threshold of emerging is for multiple screens personalized to how the user wishes to organize their personal and group activities across the hardware device types. In other words, the hardware will become less important compared to the integrated environment because it will no longer define the device experience.

Microsoft Windows 8 is an example of what the company calls the most dramatic change in their OS since Windows 95. WIN 8 is said to be the ‘One’ operating system designed for PC, laptop, tablets, and phones. The user may switch between screen personalities and interface types. For example, WIN 8 is designed much for use with touch-screens but a simple desktop tile can be selected to work in a standard keyboard and mouse PC environment.

This increasingly cloud-centric OS offers the potential for a new paradigm in the way users interact across hardware and personal activities: Work, entertainment, school, social networking or collaboration or ‘whatever’ virtualized user environment can be set up similar to having different user accounts except simpler and extended across device types.

The tablet is still a very small fraction of device sales. Thus I think its very early to be calling long term winners or the end of the phenomena. Instead I think this very much the beginning of the shift to device-OS independence and greater harmony.

Why haven’t mobile payments taken off in India?…

25%+ of Kenya’s population uses M-Pesa (http://www.telecomcircle.com/2010/01/m-pesa/). Why hasn’t something similar taken off in India where the need for mobile banking at the bottom of the pyramid is so huge?…
