Microsoft Courier interface details

Posted in Microsoft by Conner Flynn on November 4th, 2009

Microsoft Courier interface detailsA new set of documents leaked to Gizmodo show off the Courier’s user interface, which uses everything from multitouch gestures to pen-based handwriting. Looks like the core of the interface is the Smart Agenda, which pulls all your content together like calendar entries, emails, etc in one starting place, described as “Cliff Notes” to the Pagestream “novel.”

The journal looks like it’s searchable in many ways, by time, location, and tags, and it’s all accessed by a multi-button pen. It also features a camera and there’s mention of “books and subscriptions,” so you may be able to use the Courier as an ebook reader as well. None of this is official, but man does it look sweet.

Make our holidays great Microsoft and lay some official info on us already.

  1. iSlate Says:

    The Courier is a nice idea but the dual screen concept is going to cause a lot of battery loss and restrict it to only a ebook reader. The Apple iSlate on the other hand will be able to sustain a longer battery life and will be easier to hold on your comfortable couch with its 10in screen. islate.org
