kevin_4e Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I can't imagine it's legit, but if it is, the final design will be much different i hope. It could use a lot of work but the entire idea of the "Microsoft Oragami" is going to be very interesting.

INFNITE Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The Oragami is actually Microsoft's Codename for the UMPC Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/20685-microsoft-ipod-project-origami/#findComment-136838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqualeviathan Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The Oragami is actually Microsoft's Codename for the UMPC Yep. It was actually revealed several months ago and is not an mp3 player (thus not an iPod competitor).

gwprod12 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 I'd love to have a sub $300 video/music/computing device. iPods arent anything special anyways.

U.C. Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 If I can load OSX on this....wow. Even then it is far more useful to me than my laptop.

Mr. Bond Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 its to rival the ipod and the psp. I think you're thinking of another rumoured Microsoft product, seen here. The Origami is actually a low-powered, fully featured portable PC, meant for business people on the go, or just you're average geek. It's meant to do many of the same things that curren laptops can do, along with WiFi connectivity, among other things. Although I guess you could use it as an MP3 player (a very bulky MP3 player), it's not being marketed that way.
