Analyst: Origami ‘May Not Be an iPod Killer’
Thursday, March 9th, 2006 at 2:00 PM - by Brad Cook
In the wake of Microsoft's unveiling of Origami, officially known as an Ultra-Mobile PC, the Financial Times looked at reactions to the sub-tablet PC, which the site characterized as "divided." While some expected an iPod killer, the publication noted a variety of reactions, such as: "This Origami thing is nothing more than a glorified PMP with networking."
Jupiter Research analyst Michael Gartenberg said that Origami "may not be an iPod killer," but it "may well change what devices people carry with them." Some bloggers expect that it will be considered a success once the price comes down and the battery allows it to be used all day, rather than for three hours.
One blogger, however, wrote: "I soooooo want a Microsoft Origami! I don't care if it's first generation, I must find out where I can get one of these babies. Sheeesh, I haven't been this excited about a first gen gadget since the time iPaq came out."
