New items from CeBit have been emerging today around the Origami and ultra mobile PC devices.

The picture above was discovered in the Official CeBit news [url=http://cebitnews.turnpages.com/]here[/url].

It shows a screen accessible keyboard running on top of a windows XP device. It also has some of the specs for the Samsung device saying it has a 40GB hard drive with both Bluetooth and WiFi built in.

The news article also talks of an add on DVD player for ripping movies to the device and a bluetooth keyboard.

New pictures have also surfaced on [url=http://www.golem.de/]golem.de[/url] showing a new Asus UMPC. This particular device is the first pictures shoeing the OS that was in the leaked origami picture that was first featured on this site.

So there seems to be 2 different OS versions running on the devices that have been shown.

We are continually staying on top of the CeBit and Origami News over the next couple days, so check back for more info.

We have learned that the OS shown on the Asus is actually an application launcher that will be included with the ultra mobile PC devices. It sounds as though it can be turned off so that the normal Windows XP interface can be used.
