Project Natal doesn't work as a remote for media I believe.

'yet'

The idea was introduced by Canarus in 2003 after the Playstation had launched the eye-game camera. It takes Toshiba 5 years to present the similar product. And they call it innovations ?

Actually the idea of gesture control is even older, but getting it to work reliably is not all that easy. What did Canarus do? Do you mean they were inspired by Sony's Eyetoy (whose image analysis was purely motion based).

I don't know if Toshiba calls it innovations, but I think it's OK because so far no TV has a gesture remote. Even this is a demo, not a product.

Others have jumped on the bandwagon like Hitachi, Panasonic etc. when gesture TV will actually come into the market - who knows?

Who still want a TV remote?
