AMAZINGINGLY UNBELIEVABLE!!!

I must admit when I stumbled across the NAMM video of Aerodrums, I thought it was an April Fool's giggle.....
After watching the various videos, it seems funny that I was only watching a Sony Playstation presentation about the future of Virtual Reality in games and other areas of life yesterday, as Aerodrums seems to be a forerunner of the same idea. Imagine, putting on a visor and your drumkit (Yamaha, Gretsch, Premier, Tama etc) is right there in front of you.
Well done to the very clever people who thought this up.
The only thing that concerns me (I should add I'm a multi-instrumentalist who was sick of programming drums in the nineties and went out and bought a kit.......so I'm not a proper drummer) is the thought of developing some kind of Repetitive Strain Injury (aka Phil Collins). Is the lack of contact with a real surface more or less likely to cause damage to muscles, tendons etc?
