The interface is the killer in this case. Multitouch is what PDA's are missing from taking them to the next stage of awesome...well, that and e-paper. Considering there are ways to avoid having infared cameras set up on your roof to 'see' the table's surface, though admittedly not as cool, I could probably whip up a tablet-version of this in about 2 years for no more money than a mid-to-high end PC.
