Cool video: iPhone and Microsoft Surface mashup

[Slimy]

The Microsoft-Apple battle has been raging for ages, and when the iPhone and Microsoft Surface were announced, trolls squirmed with excitement at the prospect of yet another completely different pair of products to compare and bash. So if you're like me, you may find the video below a breath of fresh air. Stimulant, the developer of the sample application, describes it by saying:

XRay is a mashup of Microsoft Surface and the iPhone. Stimulant created a Surface application that reveals photographs, but by laying an iPhone on Surface, more layers of imagery are revealed, synced in real time with the upper image layers shown on Surface. The only limit to how many iPhones can be used at once is, well, how many iPhones you have handy.​

Nice. I was more impressed with Microsoft SecondLight.

Did you guys watch the video below that one? The guy held a piece of paper of the Surface (not ON it, over it), and it projected onto the paper, an entirely different image. Go back to the link and check it out.
