if so that's certainly one of the more minimalist pieces of product plugging I've seen
I dunno, the logo is not new, all be it the Win 8 one is devoid of colour, so its possible its an existing tablet, despite contrary belief MS has been supporting tablets for well over a decade now.
although that version of the logo was post XP, maybe vista? not sure
but who knows! wouldn't be the first time people done this!
Ya, I know absolutely nothing about the logos
But I did run through the video footage a few times. This is definitely the Windows logo! (Whether it's the old one or something else)...
Off topic: I wish I can run Android on my ipad.
On topic: Well, I think someone left a prototype at the bar

oh I think your right, its definitely a Windows logo, you can just about make out the 4 separate boxes and with the shape and angle of the boxes I don't think it could be anything else, but thinking about it, I think the flag came about with XP, I think 98 has a window around the boxes but at XP it lost the box, then at vista it became a bit more curved, so theres a good chance that it could be any tablet in the last 2 decades
I cant see the device its self but if it looks like crap its XP, the smaller the bezel around the screen the closer to windows 8 it will be
That's nothing new. It's Acer ICONIA Tab W500.

Its similar, but I don't think the dimensions match around the bezel, perhaps its me but if you take the glowing button as a reference then compare how many buttons you get on the left and lower bezel their not the same, but I think your on the right track, if its not that then its a relative of that design.

Hmm,
During the show, they showed a bit more of the tabel, and from what I've seen it doesn't look too much like that tablet does (although I could be wrong)... Just reporting on what I saw!

EDIT: 2nd link fixed
looks more like its showing off future smartphone and ppc phone technology. cant really tell
why couldn't it be wm7?
If they want to have an operating system that can compete with apple's then this looks promising to me.

Thanks for the link. Interesting read so far. I'm not done with the Blog.
I'm just wondering though. It says that the camera will be used to calcullate certain activities (which may include gestures such as shake, twist, etc.) instead of using gyroscopes and accelerometers.
While it is too early to tell, it seems that this approach (already attempted with current devices in field) would have a negative impact on battery drain since the camera would have to be "always on" in order to comprehend your movements.
Secondly, what if someone came up with a camera hack? Could you imagine having your camera phone hacked and just being on all the time, displaying your personal life to some freak? I don't know if that is possible or not, but, it would be kinda scarry for me.
The article contradicts itself in a few areas; such as saying scroll bars will be done away with, then later stating that the scroll bars can be dynamically resized. LOL.
Still, it's fun for me to read about forthcoming technology - vaporware or not.

In theory, yes. It will most likely not need different hardware than it needs today.
From the looks of it, WM7 will be a lot more powerful that WM6 and require a lot more processing power. I'm sure there are a few HTC devices which will be able to run it, but I don't think I waoul want to run it on my Touch since it can barely handle WM6.
I don't think there's been any official announcement about the date of release, but end of 2008 or beginning of 2009 sound like the right time frame for Microsoft to roll this out. http://htcsource.com

this is a good vid, shows all the leads etc that we will get and the unit itself which looks good.
hopefully in the next day or 2 they will upload the guy running through the software so we can see what software they included and how much they have improved it from the announcement model (if they have sorted the lag and changed or improved anything).
yeah, I'd like to see how it runs and how well it goes through the panels.
I'm considering purchasing one, just not right away...
(waiting for a price drop similar to the Xperia X1's)

Sigh... after watching the video, somehow just adds to the feeling that it really ain't much of a big improvement over the X1. But well, will still get it. And hopefully, it'll be out before the 1 year warranty of my X1 expires so that I can send it for servicing. Gotta get my keyboard issue resolved, now that I realized it ain't to do with me using a custom ROM.
If you want it to feel like a "big thing" just simply think of it as a standalone phone from the Xperia series, not as a successor to the X1.
After you establish that fact, it's just a new phone in the lineup.
I hope they won't put those pathetic earphones in the final set.
I would like to LAUGH one more time about their decision to use micro usb when all the companies in the undustry have agreed to use mini usb.
Midway through the video, just after he puts in the battery (which looks to be a standard X1 BST-41 ) - he hits a switch on the side. I was originally going to ask if that might be a Hold switch like the ASUS phones have - but I realize now its actually just a battery case lock - oh well.
Can't say I like the reduction of the buttons, makes for less customization, the micro-usb means I need to get mini-micro adapters (90% of all usb non-USB-A devices I've owned since 2002 have had Mini-USB plugs). Flat screen is nice though, being a little bigger can't hurt. Nice camera, but lower frame-rate on VGA recording like the X1a now for all editions? Mostly same specs though and no idea what software it will break... makes me with hold judgment on whether I'd ever buy it though. That and the fact I have a brand new X1 to play with in my hand right now .
Peter
P.S. Just saw your reply above me orelsi, I wish Mini-USB were the standard but I keep reading that it's now micro-usb - I'd be happy if you can prove me wrong on this Ref: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2341261,00.asp
Well...
I don't know exactly how to explain this, let's start with this photo(not the best but...) :

Original photo:
The right side of the screen as more space between the screen boarder and the case border.
It´s a tiny diference but after 2 months with this i always notice the diference.
As anyone have this same problem?
I'm thinking send it to the warranty but i don't if htc will make something about this...
If you return this to HTC - they will laugh at you and send it back.
I also have more gap on the right hand side - but can't see why this is a problem! As long as the screen is fully visable whats the issue.
There will be manufacturing tolerences that need to be taken into account - nothing is ever perfect!
Yes, but this is not a 10cent phone for that you can consider imperfaction.In the more of 30 ou 40 diferente phones this is the first with this type of imperfection and the most expensive.
At least i'm not the only with this.
Yes, your right. I haven't noticed this before. The display part of the screen is shifted left from the black painted border of the screen. Only slight on mine, but it's definitely off center.
Damn.. didnt notice this.. untill you pointed out.. May be its just the way the LCD is fitted..
I bet HTC wont even consider this as an issue.
If you guy's have this same "problem" maybe it's only the way it's built...don't know, but i don't think that this is correct from htc.My brother as one also and it as the screen perfect in the center.
this is not issue ,all hd2 i saw have it
ok,but what's the purpose?
many like that don't make it normal.

Don't see how it could simply be a housing, because the camera lens on the Magic is in the center, and in the iPhone its on the left corner, i seriously think it's legit. I mean, Android itself was ported to the iPhone, so why not iOS to android?
would there be any other link to view this video?
i can't seem to see it,keeps giving me some error that i do not understand
i get the error nomatter what browser i use
Well, it's going to be fake...
I live in the UK, when I tried to play the video I got a message that it was blocked in this region, using a US based VPN solved the issue though.
I'll get the video mirrored shortly.
Mirror here, play with VLC.

I'm honestly not sure what to think, really. Since all iPhones have 3.5" screens, a Magic case would need to fit proportionally, so someone would need to make a bigger magic-esque housing, and that one looked pretty damn real (notice the backlit keys).
I could just be a video playing, but the screen seemed to be quite responsive.
It's definitely not a theme either...
Kudos for getting the iOS4 working with anything but proprietary apple hardware, but isn't this like replacing your high-tech, highly-customizeable batmobile with something much worse?
It's interesting that the wallpaper slides along with the icons like it does on Android, I didn't think that was possible on iPhone OS. I can only assume it's just an application mimicking iPhone OS (notice how the home button is bound to the back button).

It doesn't. I have an iPod touch with iOS4. Of course, mine has the nexus lines live wallpaper. XD
This is really cool, and I doubt its fake. It has to be very possible to port it, just who would really want to? You get nothing more than a few bragging rights because I doubt many people want iOS4 over Android 1.6 2.1 or 2.2. The ONLY thing iOS4 has which is probably more hardware related is crisp graphics. Games look AMAZING on iPhones and iPods but pretty bad on Android devices.

Now I'm no programmer, but I know a couple, and I think one prerequisite to port anything from one platform to another is the source code?

Right. Showing videos without a real product is the way to do it. Great.
The flaw manifests as a milkiness to the glaze Samsung applies to the rear of the Galaxy S III, which it has said improves durability, reduces the likelihood of visible scratches and helps the handset feel more like a premium ceramic device in the hand. That “special hyper-glaze material” as Samsung referred to it doesn’t appear to have dried entirely clear, however, on top of the base color.

Is "samsung never being good on quality" the reason i never had to make any repairs on all of my families 8 samsung phones?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Whatever the reason might be... How is this possible after all those delays. Wasn't there a single person who noticed this while Samsung was pushing forward the launch date and later, after the launch date, in the period before actually shipping the thing.
I still believe they are trying to dump a batch of pre produced white units before releasing the flinstone blue version. I bet they made a big miscalculation and are confronted with a big preorder for the blue one.
