Windows 8 on Smaller Touch-Enabled Devices
Microsoft Confirms Its Plans To Bring Windows 8 To Smaller Touch-Enabled Devices Soon
During its Q3 2013 earnings call yesterday, Microsoft’s outgoing CFO Peter Klein noted that the company plans to bring Windows 8 to smaller devices. Until now, Windows 8 was mostly geared toward desktops and larger tablets, including Microsoft’s own Surface and RT machines. With the forthcoming Windows 8 Blue, rumor had it that Microsoft would enable its OEMs to run Windows 8 on smaller devices, too.
Klein confirmed this on yesterday’s call, though he mostly talked about OEMs
and did not mention whether Microsoft also plans to launch a smaller
Surface tablet, though that’s probably a fair bet, too. Currently, there
are no sub-10-inch Windows 8 tablets on the market, but according to
Klein, we will hear more about these in the coming months.
