Microsoft’s Origami project video

A minute ago or so I was just visiting my MS Discussion forums and came across a post by Randy which pointed to a Blog which supposedly had a video of Microsoft Origami project, a video I thought, already wow and we have only just seen some pics that were not even sure yet if they are the real deal or not!

Anyway I checked the Blog out and it said that if you go to the website of the Marketing firm DigitalKitchen you’ll find a video of it, so I rushed my self straight over to this site and well what I saw quite shocked me, it just has to be the real thing surely, anyway it’s best if you see it for yourself:

Much like everyone else, I’ve been wondering what Microsoft’s Origami Project is. The speculation runs rampant but it appears that you might not have to wait a few weeks to find out what Origami truly is. Marketing firm DigitalKitchen must have the ad campaign on this one because if you hit their site and enter, click Work and then BrandTheatre, guess what you’ll find. Not just pics of the device, but a Flash-based video showing the various uses. I won’t add to the speculation fire that’s burning and tell you what I saw. Instead, I’ll let you spend a few minutes viewing the revealing show so you can form your own conclusions. I will say this: as a new WMCE user, a TabletPC and WindowsMobile user for several years, I’m hoping what I saw in the video becomes available very soon. I’ll still be getting a new WM 5.0 phone that you can pick for me (so don’t forget to vote), but Origami is next on my list! There’s another pic after the jump.

Hi Darren: Thanks for mentioning my blog item about Origami in your blog. I tried finding that video on the DigitalKitchen site but couldn’t find it. Either it’s been removed or I’m looking in the wrong place. Any ideas where I might find it? Thanks

Hey Paul: No problem at all, I always link back to my sources, and as for the video it’s still appearing for me on this pc and another pc that’s never even had the page loaded before, so you maybe like you say, you are looking in the wrong place!

Now this is weird, now I’m seeing what you see, no video!

Ohh well at least we have the video hosted on other sites! 🙂
