Microsoft's Portable Device

[Aternyth]

It is called the Origami. All I can say it is freakin huge. It's not really a game system, it is more like a portable computer.

Here is a video of it in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rV1WGDW37c0&search=project origami

Yeah, I heard about this. Dont really know what to say yet though.

Judging by the picture, I don't know what to say yet either...

 

[Sly]

Its too big. If I want a handheld, I dont want it that size.

Doesnt look toooo bad for a portable computer? much smaller then a laptop....

[glow=black]What an embarassment.[/glow]

This is definitely made for the Tech section.

Anyway, it is an odd thing. Why not just carry a small notebook with you.

 

[Sly]

Thats what I was thinking. Laptops/notebooks > that thing.

 

[Lights]

Meh. If it can run games without lag on Xbox Live, I might have to give it a whirl.

A portable Halo 2 would be.. incredible.

A portable Halo 2 would be.. incredible.

Yeah, but it just wouldnt be the same for me.

IT's not a gaming system, really it is a smaller laptop. So think of laptops becoming more hand held instead of setting your crotch on fire. From what I can gather in those shots you can get maps and directions use MS word and so forth.

Seems pretty decent but if it can run like one of the better laptops out today then I would say that's pretty cool. However if it runs like one of the more shitty laptops well then MS should stop wasting money.*
