Oh...missed that. Here's hoping that the actual product will be sub $1000. I'm in easily for $500, but that might be wishing for unicorns to be real.

we wont see it for purchase until the holiday so they would have time to get prices down.

I wonder how they knew that... ;)

Came in late, I'm used to Apple presentations which are west coast timezone, east coast threw me off. I came in right in the woman awkwardly and stutteringly explaining golf tracking in a smartband - I can't think of anything that interests me less than that so I turned the stream off. May watch the whole thing later from the start, if they make the full version available. Btw, I really liked the ONE guy whooping in the background during that segment - Eastmen, was that you? Heh!

Btw, I can't help noticing that the new sports band is stainless steel instead of plastic - HMM. I wonder where they got that idea...? :)

you should jump back in its much better now .

Anyway I love my original band but you can tell it wasn't meant to be a huge product for them , I think it sold well inspite of MS .
 
Who's the guy making the Lumia presentation?
He's awesome. I'm loving the Lumias already even though I have no intention to ever buy a non-x86 windows device, ever.

EDIT: Meh, the fedora guy with the funny accent isn't half as good..

I had a upgrade that was going away as of the first of oct so I ended up with a note 5 for $350 (64 gig) my note 3 was just getting bad.

Also I doubt sprint will get these phones.

But I could sell my note 5 for $500 or so and get one of these but i'm going to hold out for a rumored surface phone.

continuum is looking pretty nice. the display dock is 3 usb , 1 hdmi and 1 display port

pretty nice that u can use the phone as you use continuum
 
This phone is pretty impressive though. Wonder what battery life is like?
The phone that can replace your PC. j/k
 
Surface time. I can't wait might have to sell a kidney !

seriously how does this guy talk so fast. I'd be out of breath on the stage.

It was nifty and looked good. Very nice, clean lines. I liked it quite a bit. Of course, I'm on an iPhone so I wasn't going to buy anything other than an Apple Watch, but it was a nifty gadget. It's good MS is making these things and improving looks and functionality and stuff. Competition in the marketplace is good. I hope the new one sells a lot.

I own the band and its a bit too bulky . The new one looks much thinner which is good

also surfaces making surfaces ....

they double down or reinvent ?

How long does the band battery typically last? The short battery life is my one turn off with these wearables.
 
12.3 inch 5m pixel 267ppi screen , bezel got smaller device did not get bigger

pixel sense tech

cover glass 400microns thick , thinnest gorial glass 4 cover glass ever shipped

1.1mm back light ,

thinnest optical stack

g5 chipset made by ms (ntrig ?)

new pen all year battery , 1024 points of pressure

no more pen loops ? its magnetic again !
 
I could swear I saw a multi-chip module in the CGI presentation, meaning this might really be a GT4e device.
 
you can change pen tips , writing , sketching , shading and so on

30% faster than spro 3

wont compare it to any tab or tablet no matter the size

16GB 1TB of storage

Damn

There it is, it's a MCM!

Don't count on it. There's a lot more tech in it plus a very high-end Intel chipset.

The 1TB + 16GB + GT3e model is probably well over $2000, probably over $2500.
