Possible pictures of the Origami device

by Andrew Pociu on Monday, March 6th - 6:46 PM



Pictures of the Origami device that I posted earlier (which are actually frames from the video), depict an old Origami device which was redesigned in the meanwhile.

Rumours say that this might be a leaked photo of the new Origami device:

Microsoft Origami

Scoble said a video will be uploaded Thursday on Channel 9, and we'll get a chance to see what Origami is about.

Here's the real Origami device:

I took this photo from CNet where  you can view 3 other Origami devices.

What I find outstanding is that it will include a laser projected keyboard, similar to the one I'm showing on my blog.

No more rumours. Here's Microsoft's page on Origami devices: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/umpc/default.mspx

Currently two devices are being shown:
