So we know that there isn’t a Microsoft mobile phone or a Microsoft tablet device yet – but Microsoft already have a prototype tablet working and have been showing it off at the Computex demo. It’s new Windows Embedded Compact 7, will support Silverlight, Flash 10.1 and a multitouch interface.
Now there’s no suggesting that this prototype will ever see the light of day and was just created to showcase the new tablet operating system, but we have to concede it does look like it could bite the back of your hand beautiful.
The prototypes grunt comes via NVIDIA Tegra 2-power and boasts a 8.9 inch display. The interface that was shown looks like a hybrid of the Zune and Window 7 interface.
So it down to companies like ASUS and others to make a device that looks as good as this does and we can expect them to unveiled later this year.
So do you think Microsoft should make their own iPad competitor and would you buy one? Let us know what you think…
