Not really 'DJ-ing' as such but music creation with alternative digital devices for sure. Sadly the table is not really for sale but you can pay for them to build you one. (http://reactable.iua.upf.edu). Bjork has experimented with this in a few of her shows.
I've personally worked with the same technology (multitouch surface) and software (reactivision) so i can see how much work must have gone into this to get it stable. Pretty awesome stuff imo.
My last project using this tech was building an interactive bar surface but with some new technology coming out (namely micro-projectors) I might try and setup a portable size rig and make some multitouch DJ software ;D
Perhaps even mod it to make it usable with ableton somehow.. that could be cool!
