Proof that they ripped it off...

Er, Morely... the Gizmodo link shows a touch screen similar to Jeff Han's, whereas the MS idea uses Rear-Proj and 5 motion-sensing cameras. Completely different approach. Granted, I prefer the slim-screen design, but MS cited field angle depth issues as justification for their method. The Mitsu link shows some crazy-ass design that runs a current through users' entire bodies - not for me thanks. Oh, and neither of them appear to offer any evidence that they pre-date MS's version. Where's your proof?
