CES 2008: Origami Experience 2.0 Released

- Warner Crocker

Looks like the Origami Team just released the Origami Experience 2.0 according to the Origami Project.com. Their are four applications in 2.0.

Now

  • Origami Central updates the original OE application to allow users to access media, but has added a fully-optimized browsing experience for UMPCs and a RSS reader. The media features have also been extended.
  • Origami Now offers one-touch access to your info whether it be email, calendar, RSS feeds, weather, you name it. It is all on one screen.
  • Origami Picture Password is being touted as a real breakthrough for using mobile devices. Instead of a password or finger print, you access a series of pictures.
  • Touch Settings which offers the same functionality as 1.0.

No link available on OrgiamiProject.com for downloading yet, but we’ll update this post when it is available. Perhaps we’ll see more of this at the Tablet PC/UMPC Meetup tomorrow.

I was told at the Microsoft Booth that this is not currently planned to be released separately - It will only be available preinstalled on new units. This decision might change, but that is the current plan.

Picture password sounds like a great idea. Maybe we could get that for tablets too.

Having a Tablet PC and not a UMPC I wonder if the Origami experience is available to me? am sure it will not run in XP Tablet edition, which is a shame. Has anyone devised a work-around for this?
