The Origami Project Team lead Dustin has an article, which has more information and answers for lot of our questions like
- Does the origami have instant on?
- Origami doesn’t have Voice Recognition for better accessability!
- Apple is better and their products are sexier and better designed!
- No one will look twice at a device that has a life of 3 hours.
- I still see a big disappointment: where is the good old keyboard?
- Is there any restriction on being able to download iTunes to this?
- I’ve seen it asked “Will Vista run well on the UPMC?”

While device makers will be determining their own prices, Microsoft is expecting the first generation of devices to be in the $599 to $999 per unit range, officials said.
The new devices are expected to weigh in at less than 2 pounds, with 7-inch screens offering a variety of stylus, touch and keyboard input choices.

Oh Well, we all were kind of settled, thinking the viral campaign of microsoft’s “Origami” was revealed and looks like we are missing something, UMPC Buzz pointed out an interesting article by Paul Thurrott, he says
As predicted, Microsoft’s mysterious Origami project is simply a hardware reference design for a new generation of small Tablet PC devices now called the Ultramobile PC. First revealed at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) in 2004, these devices will run on Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005 and feature 7-inch touchscreen displays. Though touch screen support will be built into the Tablet PC software included with Windows Vista, XP had to be augmented with additional software for this feature to work.
