Courier: First Details of Microsoft's Secret Tablet - Microsoft courier tablet - Gizmodo
Shared via AddThis
Just got a glimpse of this on Gizmodo and they've got a great video embedded, showing what appears to be a virtual demo of this dual screen wielding beauty and what it SHOULD be capable of.
I've got to admit that I'm intrigued. Of course, according to the article this product is in the "Late prototype" phase which suggests that while the product is being worked on, its not yet ready for prime time. Still, the idea of being to interact with the functions of the computer via an intuitive touch and pen like interface has really got me interested.
Seriously, I see real use for this idea as opposed to the more novelty type "tablet" approach. In book form I could easily slide it into a folio or slim briefcase and actually use it while standing and/or talking with people in the office. If the thing works like they say it might I could totally see me taking this into a court room and flying through notes that I've taken on case research with ease and precision. Considering the finesse of the Zune HD its just possible that the folks at MS decided to start bringing their A-Game. Ironically, we may have Apple to thank for this...
The article is definitely worth a look as the great folks at Giz have some more specs and of course the video.
