Not really a handheld. Looks more like a portable PC with gaming options. TMB posted something about this a coupld weeks ago.

oh yeah? ... was there anymore information then in that article... I'm kinda interested in the specifics of the system... I still can't believe Microsoft is even attempting this... looks like something out of Minority Report...

:lol: Those were my exact thoughts when I saw it. Then it was "There's about 1% chance of me owning that...thing."

Yeah and they cant even keep that with them. Anyways I dont know, I guess we will see exactly what it does and its release date, and then after launch see what it can do, I doubt ill ever own it, but who knows if I strike a gold mine, I may as well spend my nuggets on it!

It looks like an underpowered Tablet PC to me. Nice design on that front, but I can't stand tablet PC's in general. I gotta have my keyboard shortcuts. *pets HP Laptop* I take this baby with me everywhere. It's been to the Rocky mountains, coffee shops in LA, swampy hell holes, and grazed Miyamoto's right arm.
Oh, and as a handheld gaming console.....
:lol:
I'll leave it at that.

Holy crap, that thing is gigantic! You'll have to carry it in a seperate backpack!
:lol: Those were my exact thoughts when I saw it. Then it was "There's about 1% chance of me owning that...thing."I'm glad you atleast admitted there's a small chance you might get own. I guess I'll have to do the same. I mean i'm a gamer and while I really don't think I'd ever buy that (unless they had a redesign before the actual one gets released) I won't rule it out completely. If the right games came along I'd atleast consider it.

It looks like it just runs PC software that has been patched to function on it. It would work good with God games and sims, but I just don't see it working well with Halo, even if it is on the screen.
