Re: [Skunkworks] Microsoft Cancels Innovative Courier Tablet Project
Hey *, Seems the iPad release scattered M$'s plans... Would have been interesting to see how the competition for this market sector would have developed if the Courier gizmo had been released...

Having checked it out. I believe this would have been a very serious contender for the iPad, especially with the proliferation of MS-destined software several times over those of Apple the world over. They could even have released an OLPC-like version - but since we hear its coming to EA already, let's wait and see... I really hope MS releases a tablet sometime soon to rival the iPad and even the playing field. I'm not an Apple hater, just my thots...

You right I agree that if MS did then Apple would shake their prices and of course we benefit when giants fight On Fri, Apr 30, 2010 at 12:52 PM, Haggai Nyang <haggai.nyang@gmail.com>wrote:
