Created by the Danger division within Microsoft. It'll probably get a new name, other than Sidekick, though.

Like certain other companies are any less 'late' to the gadget party...

Hmmm? I think the year was 2003:

http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tr/gallery/hptr1105/Image00021_small.jpg

Except this one had a larger display (same aspect ratio - LOL!), built in USB ports, a built in fire wire port, built in video out, a full-fledged operating system, true multi-tasking, handwriting recognition, more ram, larger storage capacity, a smaller bezel, and on... and on.

So... What was that your were saying about being Late To The Party?]]>Jan 29th 2010 1:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/Jan 29th 2010 1:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/
So do I, and my TC1100 runs very well with Windows 7.

It's a TRUE Tablet PC for the REAL computer user, not just what one (tyrannical) individual feels we should be using ;-)

I don't like klondike bars, but I'll tell you want. You setup a deal with some Lindt Chocolate and I'll do some horrible terrible things to someone for you.

After I kill them of course. ;)]]>Jan 29th 2010 12:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/Jan 28th 2010 11:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/

I want the following in a phone:

- 1.5GHz power-sipping CPU
- HDMI-out
- mobile UI + desktop UI (when doing HDMI-out)
- 1080p support for videos AND desktop
- microSD card support, up to 32GB
- 5" screen (I'm willing to buy my pants based on the size of my phone)
- dockable keyboard + mouse with HDMI-out and power charger (can be sold separately)
- unicorn wallpaper

Now that At&t have dropped their prices and Tmobile is no longer a great value I will most likely consider signing up with At&t to get the new Iphone even though I am desperately want something different. Hopefully the Zune phone can deliver and compete as a premium phone that I will consider. Also I am looking at what the Pre 2 will look like since it is probably the best overall OS currently. ]]>Jan 28th 2010 11:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/
I've had a 3GS and original iPhone, and I would recommend the 3GS because of the 3G (if you live in an AT&T 3G coverage area), GPS, and speed. Compass is nice, I don't ever use voice control but it works if you like it. If you don't live in AT&T 3G coverage, I'd probably go with a Droid (unless Verizon is bad around your area, or you just hate Verizon).]]>Jan 29th 2010 12:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/Jan 29th 2010 12:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/zune-software-references-rumored-project-pink-devices-a-video-up/
