  1. Comment - Scoble Warns: Origami Over-Hyped?

    hehehe, not even close to similar...

    GamePark releases systems to a gaming market while the Nokia 770 would be a comperable project to the Origami.

    The hardware itself defines the potential.
    Its the software's duty to meet the expectations.

  2. Comment - Microsoft Origami: Mobile PC, Runs XP

    What is peaking my curiousity, is the usage of an ancient oriental artform as a Codename. The corallation is what technology has done to Origami, a tradition that almost no Japanese youth knows. Origami has been replaced by thousands of technology gadgets, game systems, and portable media devices.

    Technology-wise, this device seems to be Microsoft's answer to the Nokia 770 Internet Tablet (http://www.nokiausa.com/770), and we all know Microsoft's motivation for making such a move with such a strong marketting edge.

    Yes it may be interesting to know what Microsoft is up to this time. But on the same token, save your money, save your braincells, and make sure tomorrows youth doesn't replace tradition with technology.
