Carrypad wins engadget competition?

Posted on 06 March 2006

Someone out there wants a carrypad too. I’ve just had a look at the results of last weeks ‘What Would Jobs Do’ design competition at Endadget and I have to say, I like the winner. In terms of form and size its got be the closest thing that i’ve seen to a carrypad. Adam K’s Apple Tablet.Of course, there’s no telling what might be inside this sexy little pearl-white gem, but the size and keyboard (at last) look almost spot on.

Origami Pics Leaked!

Posted on 06 March 2006

OrigamiPortal received this leaked photo from an online source today and we decided to share it with our visitors.

If this is the actual final product, it’s pretty slick. And if it’s not, it’s a very nice mockup. The pic we have received shows a device that looks thinner than the ones shown in the Digital Kitchen video. And the UI is definitely some new handheld OS.

In the corner of the window there is the words Alexandria. (The logo kind of looks like the Alexandria library software.) I’m not sure what Alexandria is however.

The UI components seem to emulate what has been shown so far with Windows Vista over the last couple beta releases.

The one weird component is the word “podcast” on the right side tree. If this is real, would Microsoft include this by default in their menus?

And look at that, you can download Law and Order off of it for just $29.99! What a deal!

We will be deconstructing what we feel each of these buttons do in our next news post. In the meantime love the pic and comment on it if you know anything about it.

Also, looks like this story was added to Digg, so go digg the story higher [url=http://www.digg.com/technology/Actual_Leaked_Origami_Pics_Released_]here[/url]
