    Rotate a monitor

    Looks like a rotated touchscreen monitor - even down to the buttons on the buttom right of the frame. Hide the SVGA cable down the arm sleeve and hey presto it is a new giant touch pad...

    But the Penguin Knows more then the Paris.

    Nice!

    Whether or not it is a joke, surely there must be a market for such a device? It would be great to have a tablet pc that is actually big enough to do serious work on. Hardly a pocket portable device, but I still think peple would buy these, if nothing else simply because its rediculous

    a guy off camera synchronising taps on a PPC linked to a widescreen monitor with cables running up the presenter's sleeve perhaps?

    Whatever it is, I don't want one.

    UFO?

    Amazing how pretty much all alleged UFO video evidence is of bad vid quality - same goes here.

    UFO -> IFO

    HTC Magnum = IFO.

    Identified FAKE object.
