Alexandria? Uh, just by looking at that screenshot (if its real and not a photoshop special) anybody familiar with WMP and its file-tree logic can see it is a video subscription service. It operates on the Napster model, apparently. (Notice how the Alexandria branch lies under library/videos at the top of the pane?)
Kinda explains the recent introduction of monthly passes for video at iTunes, no? (MS needs to start using their document control tech inhouse; their current system leaks like a sieve. Maybe a few Apple-style prosecutions... :devilboy: )
Sounds like Alexandria speculation properly belongs at DMT. ;-)
Now Origami looks great; I just need to know three things:
Storage type and capacity
Maximum WMV resolution it can play back
Price
Size and weight looks good. Battery life sounds a bit low but acceptable; 4 hours would be best for today's tech.
I'm intrigued by the hint that some models (presumable the $1000 ones) might come with FlashRAM instead of hard-drive storage.
I do like the mention of 60GB drives.
My TabletPC is starting to show its age so I would not at all mind one of these as a replacement in the next 18 months...
And they're supposed to start appearing next month?
Yay!
