Multi-touch, Multitouch. CES 2011: Microsoft Surface 2.0 revealed, Windows 8 to run on SoC. Micorsoft just held a special press conference at 1pm PST, featuring Steven Sinofsky, President of the Windows and Windows Live division, giving us a preview of what’s to come in this evening’s keynote.
Perhaps the most interesting (and surprising) news from this special press conference was the unveiling of Microsoft Surface 2.0. According to Sinofsky, this new version of Surface is powered by a multicore CPU and GPU by AMD and will be manufactured by Samsung in a partnership with Microsoft. What’s special about the new version is that the new Surface is just 4″ thick and uses the new PixelSense technology where every pixel is an infrared sensor (instead of a camera like the old Surface), making the device slim enough to be wall-mountable. The new Surface also features the biggest piece of Gorilla Glass ever produced.
