I'm a touch curious...

Little word play joke there in the title,

I've been reading up on the new touch screen technology for both desktops and laptops that is similar in form to the iPhone and such. HP has a couple of cool looking set ups, and Windows 7 is coming out with touch screen capability. This begs the question as to weather your game system will be able to ditch the cursor in favor of a touch screen capable system. I think it might be pretty cool to be able to interface with the game simply by toughing the power activation, or by double tapping a target to auto-follow them, or to be able to interact with the Champions Online game in general without having to use a keyboard, a mouse, or a XBC at all. Set up a large screen touch unit and play!!!

I know you can browse the web basically like you do on an iPhone with touchscreen capable systems, I am hoping that will carry over to your game when the technology becomes more commonplace.

Here's hoping,

    It'd be cool, but in games I'm not a clicker. I'm a keyboard user. So it wouldn't have much use to me.

    Aside from that, I absolutely HATE it when my monitor is dirty. Fingers on the monitor? BLASPHEMY! ;)
