Kinect for windows - Starting February 1st!



It was something to expect ... Microsoft Kinect sold 18 million devices inside 2011, so now it arrives on windows!!! Kinect for windows will be available February 1st at a suggested retail price of $249!

PS. The only thing i see that users complain about is that XBOX Kinect model is DIFFERENT than Windows Kinect which means that you need 2 different devices ... one for each platform. THAT SUCKS.

Today, we are announcing that the new Kinect for Windows hardware and accompanying software will be available on February 1st, 2012 in 12 countries (United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, United Kingdom), at a suggested retail price of US $249.  

Windows 8 Preview




Οι παρατηρήσεις μου:

- Η παρουσίαση γίνεται σε tablet ή υπολογιστή με touchscreen
- Σαφώς φέρνει στοιχεία του windows 7 Phone [mobile].
- Τα πληκτρολόγια και τα ποντίκια φαίνονται για πρώτη να φορά να μπαίνουν στο περιθώριο
- Η κίνηση των παραθύρων και η εναλλαγή είναι εκπληκτική και σε επίπεδα apple iOS
-  To απαιτούμενο hardware άραγε ποιό να είναι και πόσο γρήγορα θα είναι σε παλιούς PC?
- To multitasking και η εναλλαγή ανάμεσα στις εφαρμογές είναι οι πιο γρήγορες που έχω από την εποχή των windows 3.1 [πάλι με κάνουν να αναρωτιέμαι για το hardware].
- Αν η microsoft έχει ξαναγράψει τον κώδικα και μπορουν να    παίζουν έτσι σε διπύρηνους, μιλάμε για την πιο σημαντική γενιά windows EVER.
-Αν δε, καταφέρουν να μην έχουν BSOD στην πρώτη παρουσίαση τους live [LOL] επίσης θα είναι ένα μεγάλο βήμα μπρός.
- H παρουσίαση έγινε 4 μέρες ΠΡΙΝ την παρουσίαση του νέου λειτουργικού της Apple, ;-))

Internet Explorer 10 preview - download it.


O νέος Internet explorer 10 είναι έτοιμος για την μάχη με τον Chrome 11[ή 12], τον firefox 5 και παρόλο που μόλις ανακοινώθηκε η 9η έκδοσή του, η Microsoft τον ετοιμάζει για ενγενή υποστήριξη HTML5. To Adobe Flash βεβαίως αρχίζει να φαίνεται αρχαιολογία και αν δεν το αλλάξουν σοβαρά, η HTML5 θα είναι η γλώσσα που θα κυριαρχεί στα site των επόμενων χρόνων. 

Ps. μου άρεσε η προβολή του twitter μέσα από βίντεο της MS.
Ps2. ωραίο το 1ο σχόλιο:
 Wow. Impressive list of improvements in the CSS range... Congrats!Daniel Glazman

The Windows Embedded Compact 7 product — the evolution of Windows Embedded CE — includes several new features. Among them:
* Support for ARM v7
* New developer and designer tools
* New technology for creating user interfaces
* New SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) support for x86 & ARM, MIPS
* New multimedia player, with customizable UI
* New version of Internet Explorer (which is based on IE 7 with some “performance updates” from IE 8)

* Silverlight for Embedded support
* Improved Connectivity to PCs, servers (NDIS 6.1 support)
To develop with Windows® Embedded Compact 7, your computer should meet the following hardware requirements:
• Approximately 100 GB of free hard disk space
• 2.4 GHz or higher CPU, 1024 MB or more RAM, 1280x1024 display, 7200 RPM or higher hard disk

CES2011 - Microsoft Kinect & Boxing

Στο booth της Microsoft, περίοπτη θέση είχε η παρουσίαση των δυνατοτήτων του Kinect για XBOX 360 και δικαιολογημένα βεβαίως καθώς έχει πουλήσει ήδη 60 εκατομμύρια κομμάτια μέσα σε 2 μήνες μόνο! Στο βίντεο βλέπετε τις δυνατότητες που έχεις στο ... boxing!
