The issue with this and the laser KB is always tactile feedback. I think we would like to develop interfaces like that shown in the PC game Mass Effect. It's explained by the designers that people either wear gloves with sensors and feedback built in, or they have sensors embedded under their fingertips (heavy users/engineers/hackers).

I’ve seen prototypes for gloves like that (only as a mouse). And I don’t think tactile feedback is everything, you see people usuing the tiny keyboards on cell phone screens, and once you get used to it, you really don’t need it except for few occasions. I think your right that some people (heavy users) will pay for that, but I believe the cheap way to go will be to ignore that.

And I have got to play that. :D
