So, your Xbox 360 avatar is not lifelike enough for you? Well, stop your moaning because Microsoft's Chief Research and Strategy Officer Craig Mundie has some news for you.
USA Today has Craig telling the world about lifelike avatars that are nearly as realistic as photographs (yes, we wondered about that).
It's all about natural interaction or, as Craig puts it, "Natural interaction with computers is most important going forward. Kinect demonstrates that it's possible -- and appealing."

Reminds me of an early PS3 tech demo where they had real-time motion capture driving a life-like avatar.
"Natural interaction with computers is most important going forward"
What? Natural as in "holding your hand up for several seconds instead of just 'air tapping' to activate something"?
