Origami

I've been following the Origami buzz lately. If you haven't heard, it's rumored to be a UMPC or Ultra Mobile PC by Microsoft. I didn't think I was going to be putting a post up on it here, but then it clicked.

Well it just dawned on me that Origami might be an affordable alternative. I'd love to see a more robust miniMusic suite for it. We'll soon know... Title link takes you to the Origami site - still giving teasers.

    It's not a PC.

    It's a Origami emulator.

    lol. I've actually been getting into origami lately. One of the less mind numbing things to do with your child. I remember seeing the crane in Blade Runner and thinking, one day I will learn how to make that. Just did this year. The crane is relatively easy actually. What's interesting is Origami would have been a perfect name for the Palm. It's like a blank sheet of paper that can turn into any app you want it to, but only one app at a time, just like origami.
