  Yes,  I had a play with one of those at an educational tech show last year and liked it a lot.  I thought the haptic feedback was especially good.

  <br> When I saw the leapmotion device the application that jumped to mind was presentations to provide smartboard like functionality.

    At the 3d PrintShow last year, I got to play with a haptic 3d mouse, which I think is actually more useful than a 3d kinect-like device, I was very impressed with it's feel and how it worked.

     I would like to see something like it that works independent of OS and at a more reachable price.

       Worth a look at the video demonstration - it looks to be really responsive and the control looks pretty fine grained too.

      </div> On New Scientist's web site I found this reference to a 3D input device.
      <br> Apparently it is half the price of Microsoft's offering. The company has a
      <br> positive attitude to Linux and a Linux developer Forum on the site.
