Concierges beware: Sheraton hotels transform the lobby experience

MS Surface.jpgCheck out this video on the Microsoft Surface website. It details a new partnership between the software giant and Sheraton Hotels and Resorts aimed at enabling guests to access local information in hotel lobbies. Guests at five Sheratons can now sit at a 30-inch table, which doubles as a touch-sensitive computer screen, and surf information about local restaurants, bars, entertainment options and amenities.

Great for guests - but could this be curtains for the concierge?
