On: Microsoft Files Patents for Virtual Game Controller

I'm all for gadgets, but why not just take the Catan board from the shelf and play?

What about playing in a car? It seems to me that virtual pieces being displayed on a LCD screen would be less prone to jostling then the real board.

Or what about on a camping trip where compactness is a desired feature? A single tablet could hold alot more board games then you'd normally have room for in the car.

If the customer has to enter their information over again every billing period, whats the point of storing anything?
