The tradition of MS is to copy sucessfull products or features. But in the long years MS exists, they could not even one big thing that they originally invented. MS is following the tradition, they copy the Miis they will copy the wiimote in some way. Look at their console ... everyone expected something special from the first xbox. But it was only a flatten out pc. |
Or they will take the research and development for the interface of their next OS and use it to make something that will blow away the Wiimote?
I've tried the latest office interface and its something that other Open Office etc will look to copy not the other way around. But in any case I don't get why people are so up tight about how Microsoft doesn't innovate on their core products like Office and Windows when they can't quite frankly. Since everyone knows how to use Windows as it is, they can't just go and change it nor can they drop legacy support at the flick of a switch. Its the same as GM who can't change the basic layout of a car, and even cars which are too innovative visually won't sell.
Tease.
