According to a Microsoft employee who has seen the device, the Courier is about as big as an ordinary paperback and folds out to reveal two screens. Users would be able to take notes on the device with a pen, and easily drag and share content between the screens.

But Microsoft engineers have concerns about the battery power needed to keep the two screens going, these people said. And internally the company is struggling to identify the right market. At first the idea was to market the Courier for designers and architects, but lately the company is thinking of a broader market of consumers and so would include e-books, magazines and other media content on the device.

Microsoft engineers have talked about getting the Courier out by early 2011, though no firm decision has been made to sell the product. ]]>Apr 12th 2010 10:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/eric-schmidt-spreading-word-of-an-android-based-google-tablet-h/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/eric-schmidt-spreading-word-of-an-android-based-google-tablet-h/

Anyone with a brain would know that if a device is out within 6 months; it sure as hell wasn't copied from Apple. It was concurrently developed.

Does it better my foot. According to the satisified consumers of Apple products they sure are doing it better than others. Apple rushing devices, don't make me laugh. The ones who are rushing are devices are the competition who wait to see what Apple has to release before rushing out theirs. ]]>Apr 12th 2010 10:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/eric-schmidt-spreading-word-of-an-android-based-google-tablet-h/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/12/eric-schmidt-spreading-word-of-an-android-based-google-tablet-h/
