    Have anyone heard any news on the Microsoft Courier? I contacted Steve Ballmer from Microsoft and all he said was, “We are working away, that’s all I can say.” He presented the Courier at a show, but then I heard it was cancelled. I want one so bad.

      It was cancelled late 2010. No chance of seeing that. Get an iPad!
