Video: NanoTouch spotted doing a little gaming

Back when we first caught a glimpse of the NanoTouch, we'll freely admit that we thought it might be superb for small-scale gaming. The 2.4-inch LCD, developed by Microsoft and the Hasso Plattner Institute, the tiny screen boasts a capacitive touchscreen on the back (much like the LucidTouch), and is apparently quite sensitive. Check out the video demonstration of the NanoTouch in some gaming action after the break.

looks awesome. maybe we will see something like this on the new zune.

Nano name is a bit too associated with ipod.

I agree with tuoyo.... I was confused at the mention of Microsoft at first so I had to read again to realise it wasn't an apple product.

see the part where it says microsoft. they are more associated with the zune.  

That was a terrible display of gaming capabilities. Not graphically, but more in terms of control. I do like not having to krud up the display or block part of the display by using the back.
