The requirement is an ARMv6 or higher CPU.

By that time this sort of hardware will probably be standard fare in most smartphones.

Having said that it would be a major win to get something close to this in 2009]]>May 12th 2009 4:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/May 12th 2009 4:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/May 12th 2009 9:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/May 12th 2009 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/May 12th 2009 3:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/
This sound sexy!!! I always thought Windows Mobile should branch out more to non-business users. They should still keep WinMo but come out with a somewhat different mobile OS that's geared towards casual users 'cause even though WinMo is a good enough mobile OS, sometimes its a burden to use because of the way its designed for business users.]]>May 12th 2009 3:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/May 12th 2009 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/
Well done, Microsoft - they're showing good platform management that's been lacking in WinMo for some time. ]]>May 12th 2009 6:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/
Look, I claim no party, I am not a slave to the brands, and on the flip side, this whole announcement and the hardware specs and even the mock up pictures look amazing and I already want one, but I'm having to reel myself back in, because again, Microsoft's whole game is to create as much hype as they possibly can, shove their product out the door, then try and patch things up later (which they somehow never seem to accomplish).

Want an example?

Windows 7, the greatest thing since the Red Light District....nothing like it was touted to be. It was supposed to be so fast that Vista would seem like it was locked up...guess what? It's slower than Vista. Boohoo. These are facts people, not my opinion. Yes, yes, it's only in RC status, and I understand it's not supposed to be out until at least the end of the year, but I'm not holding my breath for any significant improvements by launch date. RC means exactly that. That it could be released 'right now' and fly as a complete OS.

Something that's been bothering me....If RC means Release Candidate, doesn't that mean that they should have other candidates? And why haven't we been able to test those candidates? Seems only fair, doesn't it? I mean, maybe Microsoft is holding back the really super awesome RC and giving us the grissle and fat OS? I'd like to think that the programmers in Redmond have these helmets on that allow virtual reality 3D computer desktop interfaces. Or something...

Maybe that's what Apple does, and Microsoft is still working in a virtual monopoly.

Ah, to hell with them both, I'll stick to using linux.]]>May 12th 2009 8:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/Vodka is legally (at least in Russia) mandated to be 80 proof, you can't have 100 proof vodka. ]]>May 12th 2009 9:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/
What you said AREN'T facts, and ARE your opinion.

@ Mark: Does that mean Devil's Springs isn't vodka? Because it's like 180 or 190 proof?]]>May 12th 2009 9:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/
yeah, no. Windows 7 is faster in every single way compared to Vista. Every single one of my computers that had to be saved by installnig linux so they would run at a decent speed have all been wiped and have the Win7 RC on them and are running better then ever.

Windows 7 is faster than Vista = fact. sorry]]>May 15th 2009 7:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/12/microsoft-pink-specs-leak-out-tegra-snapdragon-omap-3-oh-m/"
