they claimed the courier died...... which is just silly.
lets think about this for a second....then i well reach out and slap Gizmodo for bothering to speak about this.
knowing what the courier is, means they have dumped a LOT of money into it.
which means that if they let as much talk generate and information be released on it.
which means they have no doubt bin reading some of the word from the people on the divice.
which means they know how bad people want it
SO, first off MS is no fool they know that abandoning the project would be a foolish move.
they have done no such thing.
SO lets take a look at the company right now as of whats going on.
1) they just came out with a new OS (windows 7)
2) they just came out with a new zune (zune HD)
3) are about 2 weeks away from releasing KIN
4) have a big show at E3 to release the Xbox slim and Natal
5) all of the crazy dealing with the new Natal game developers, and windows mobile app developers
6) the fall release of Xbox Natal, Xbox slim, Windows mobile 7 phones
not to mention any other projects the R&D labs might be working on
that they are probably just putting the "courier" off to the side for now
which clearly means it not dead.....not dead.....not dead
but why my ("") cus hear is what is MOST likely going on.
1) renaming the thing, Xbox was not going to be originally called Xbox 360
but the name stuck. but the name was like how Nintendo called the wii "Nintendo revelation"
but Nintendo stated it was just an idea name. MS just stuck with 360. but originally it was going to be called something elce.
hints the release of "Xbox slim" not being called "Xbox slim 360"
and Xbox Natal...not "Xbox 360 natal" or Xbox Natal 360"
they are hinting of the NEXT Xbox being called NOT Xbox 720
so "courier" is probably going through identity issues and is probably changing its name.
2) after the ipad and its stupid ass showed up with no HD, no camera (let alone HD camera)
no microphone, or USB option for a key bored, camera extra....
MS is probably looking at the faults and redeeming things about ipad and applying them to the
"live journal" or "tablet" project
3) they are probably upping things such as
if MAC (ya thats right i said it the compeny name is MAC not apple)
if MAC (short for Macintosh) has no camera
u can be pretty sure the "live journal" well have a HD camera
if mac has no pen, then the "live journal" well have a digetizer pen like HP touch pens
....and so on
4) as time goes by the price for a GB goes down. when it comes out it well probably have more memory then ipad.
5) also they just acquired a lot of the app (short for application) to work on the windows mobile 7
that means that app compeys of 3rd party would have to then be called to work on stuff for the "live jernal" as well. making the app making market people go down.
so they probably want focus on windows mobile 7 (long for wm7) for now at least.
6) clearly with WM7 and KIN they want to include zune in the product this well be a deffenit for the "live journal" as well. and some sort of windows CE.
so they probably (this is more of a hunch) but they are probably going to see how the WM7 dues in peoples hands and see what kind of things are developed for it.
that way they can better apply it to the "live journal"
the same could be said from what it can take from HP slate
in all i well hold my ground as say with all things considered above the "courier" is not dead
just having identity issues and well be back later looking better then ever and with a new name
so sure gizmodo the name "courier" is probably dead....but not the product.
