As expected, Microsoft on Thursday revealed a few new hints about its much-hyped Origami Project, which is expected to launch in the form of an ultra-portable PC with touch screen and media capabilities. However, details of the project are still sketchy and Microsoft is remaining cryptic. The "week 2" update on origamiproject.com expands the questions offered last week, saying "wondering where to find me?," "i am everywhere you are, but never in the way" and "who am i?" The statements reinforce the idea of Origami as a small portable computer.
Viewing the HTML source code to the site additionally shows the following text: "Origami Project: the Mobile PC running Windows XP."
The final week of hints will be posted to the site on March 9. Microsoft has not said when it plans to fully detail the effort, but a number of analysts have already been briefed on Origami.
