We have a Kinect at home. It is a fun toy and could be very useful for consumer applications but waving your hand in the air is not a high precission way to interact with a computer, even less precise than a fat finger on a touch screen.

I use a keyboard with my tablet most of the time because touch is good for a rough fast interaction but not good for precise data input.
