A Microsoft portable media player called Origami

by colbert low on March 1st, 2006

This Microsoft Origami pictures will surely make some visitors sliver as it looks cool with a keyboard and stylus bundled in. Imagine a portable media player that surfs the internet too.

Now, here’s the tricky part with these pictures — what’s with the keyboard and stylus? Because the last time we checked, their Portable Media Center (PMC) OS didn’t have (known) support for touchscreen and keyboard input. So is this some new portable OS platform running on CE.net? Or perhaps it’s just a fat little Pocket PC device with some media software? Or something totally different — could Microsoft beat Apple to the punch with the first serious touchscreen portable media device? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s that ultramobile lifestyle PC Microsoft was talking about recently.
