A company from Israel called VKB has created a vitual keyboard that can be displayed, using a laser, on almost any surface. Connect it to your PDA and use your kitchen table as a keyboard. Talking of surfaces, Olympia has created sound device called Soundbug that uses any hard surface as a speaker. Again, attach this to your PDA and kitchen table and enjoy your mp3's. News.com has more." Soundbug was also mentioned in this earlier story; what other gadgets from CeBIT are worth talking about this year?

    Not really true!

    The CeBIT aims for professionals, but the average American, although sitting in a "wired home" (whatever that is, probably nothing compared to Japan), has an IQ equal to that of dry bread. So not too many professionals in the US of Asses, sorry.
