this is another overhyped trendy blah-blah, like "cloud computing". such 
interfaces are for casual users. sure, when i want to simply listen music 
or watch a movie, it's easier to tell that or point it with my finger. 
but if i want to use my computer for something more complex, typing on 
keyboard is simply faster and less error-prone than speaking. especially 
if you cut off that stupid mouse. ;-)
