Microsoft's prototype ipad competitor

Microsoft has an interesting video here on engadget showing a conceptual touchscreen device that seems geared toward productivity. It is not exactly an e-reader, or perhaps I should say not simply an e-reader, but watch the video it has some interesting features.

Also here is a good slideshow of the pros and cons of six e-readers that aren't the ipad.

  1. Courier looks like one of those really impressive, well-designed products I'd never have the opportunity or inclination to use. I do think there's such a thing as feature overload.

  2. However, it is positive proof that ereaders are still in their infancy, and that we can get a lot more functionality out of these devices than we may realize at the moment.
