Microsoft Courier Looks Gorgeous!
I can’t quite believe that I’d ever say this, but the Courier seems to be (nearly) everything i’d want in a tablet PC. Is it possible that Microsoft has finally managed to trump Apple?
Just take a look at this. This is just soooo beautiful. The world has been holding its breath for the new Apple tablet, but I think ‘the world’ may have been dreaming the wrong dream.
Unlike the predicted Apple tablet, the Courier just seems so much more practical, durable and usable. The form-factor, the interface, the aesthetic, it just ‘does it’ for me.
Take the time to watch the following video. The user-experience shown here seems to be absolutely amazing and sooo natural. This can’t be Microsoft – they just don’t do stuff like this?
The only thing I’d wish for is digital ink, but the technology doesn’t exist yet to support the colour and responsiveness that would be needed here. I’d also ‘beg’ Microsoft to keep-it-simple and not start feature cramming. It’s the (apparent) simplicity of this device that makes it work.
If the Gizmodo story is true, it would appear that the Courier is a real thing and not too far away.
How can I pre order one now? I want one so badly.
Hmmm We’res the video gone?
Fixed up now. Thanks for pointing it out honey
Dang, I love a good tablet!
That one looks even better’n panadol or the ten commandments.
