  Microsoft's Smart Display: What Redmond Did Wrong
Time: 12:45 EST/17:45 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Fred Fernandez

Anytime a PR person starts calling me less as a product launch approaches, it's typically not a good sign. So I wasn't surprised to see Microsoft's announcement last week that it was postponing the launch of Windows-powered Smart Displays. The bigger question is: What took them so long?

From the start, the device formerly known as Mira seemed to be on a collision course with Microsoft's Tablet PC, which will debut on Nov. 7. While a Tablet PC is actually a fully functional PC, a Smart Display is just an add-on flat-panel monitor that wirelessly connects to an existing PC.
