Week 3 just got here for Microsofts Origami and it looks like it is showing the new devices seen at CeBit today http://www.origamiproject.com/3/
According to the new community site the Origami will include something called the Microsoft Touch Pack which includes new software that was specifically designed for easy targeting with your finger on the touch screen.
Software included is:
* Program Launcher — A customizable interface that let’s you quickly get to the programs and web sites you use the most. In addition to changing the categories and the shortcuts in Program Launcher, you can also change the background to one of the images we provided or to one of your own.
* Brilliant Black — A Windows Media Player skin designed to make it easier to target the user interface with your finger.
* DialKeys — A program by Fortune Fountain Ltd. that gives you a way to input text on the touch-screen computer.
* Touch Improvements — A group of settings that make Windows easier to use and view on an Ultra-Mobile PC.
* Sudoku — A touch- and pen-optimized version of this popular number game.

And they even have program launcher backgrounds available on the site. However they say you can only download them if you promise to only use them with the Microsoft Touch Pack. Thats like using the honor system.
