Microsoft Survey Hints At "Oahu," Surface Multitouch Table At
Consumer Prices Microsoft is at least considering releasing a
consumer-priced version of its Surface computer, if a marketing
research survey is to believed. The survey is centered around a
device called “Oahu,” which, from its description, sounds a lot
like the table we've all come to know and love: a multitouch
flat screen that sits like a table top and allows for multiple
users to interact with it at once. The survey asks what “forms”
of Oahu the participant would like to see: if they would most
likely use it as a homework helper, for content creation (for
things like editing recipes), or as an information hub. It also
asks how likely the participant would buy it if it cost $1,500.
