There is a plugin that takes care of the tool dock clutter. Take a look at it when there site comes back up. The zip file is called BackgroundWindow.zip, I don't remember what the name of the project is. I believe it has wierd in the name though.

You could build a table that allowed you to manipulate objects on top of the liquid with magnetic fields. This would be useful for automated part sorting. It could also be a lot of fun to play a game of soccer with a ball that floated on the liquid and a moveable array of electromagnets above and below that table that are configurable and moveable by the players.
You could build an interesting virtual reality immersion suit with this. A double layer suit with this between the layers and an array of electromagnets on the outside of it could give and interesting mix of tactile sensations. Or a really good back massage.
It seems to me that with some fine control over multiple electromagnets would enable you to inject this into the blood stream, move it to a clot and vibrate it to pieces. I don't know the implications of having this mixture in your blood stream though. It Probably is really bad for you. Well I suppose you could use it to remove clogs from non-ferrous pipes.
You were curious what the resoultion was so I'm posting a link

"The absolute horizontal accuracy (90% Circular Error) is 20 meters.
The absolute vertical accuracy (90% Linear Error) is 16 meters. "
If you ever spent much time with your grandparents when you where a kid and enjoyed it, you probalby noticed that they have a different smell about them. This could be great for an archive of family pictures of relatives gone. All the memories that the sight and smell could bring back. Or for a grab at the shirt http://www.grandparenting.org/ and that wonderfull smell of mothballs and ointment

you can download the device driver kit from Microsoft. It probably comes with documentation and examples.
