| Why Does Everyone Hate Ultra-Mobile PCs? Pi§§ed-Off Lemmings Start Early On UMPC First it was called "Origami" and Microsoft tried to whet our appetites for whatever it was with a mysterious campaign featuring the name and not much more. Then the grand concept was released to the world under the name "Ultra-Mobile PC" or "UMPC". By the time of its release members of the technical press - most of whom were not clued in on the product - were ready to hate whatever Microsoft called its new small PC concept originally code named for the fine Japanese art of paper folding. http://www.mobilityguru.com/2006/06/...ra-mobile_pcs/
