Bill Gates uses the term “Origami” rather than UMPC (Ultra-Mobile PC). JK approves and so do I.

Still not sure if they are useful, toy, or hype (battery life a downfall?) but calling them Origami rather than YouEmmPeeCee’s is a good move. Maybe strange at first but no more than iPod or Blackberry!
