Apparently these are shots of Windows 7 concepts which never made it to production and as a result discarded.
There were apparently over 400 concept sketches shown off at the MIX conference, an event for developers where Microsoft spoke on the development process for Windows 7.
The most stunning one of all to me is probably the bat signal like taskbar thumbnail preview, very comical!
Since iPhone 3.0 was revealed last week, a number of clever people who have access to the developers beta version of the OS firmware 3.0 have been able to explore it in more depth. A number of details have now been spotted, much more than what was announced and talked about at the presentation last week.

This year at the CES we were thrilled to see the teaser featuring ASUS’s latest fold / unfold laptop concept in development, however the fact that a laptop as thin as this and looked much like origami just seemed too unrealistic. Well now, we know that ASUS weren’t joking at all, in fact in an interview with TechRadar, ASUS CEO Jerry Shen confessed that this very machine would be shipping in the September to October time frame and that the end-user price would be “somewhere between $1,000 and $1,500″.

The speculations of the Lenovo Pocket Yoga concept, a slim, P Series-like netbook which was leaked to the press by Lenovo earlier today has now been confirmed to be an aborted project which will never come to reality. Interestingly, Lenovo have had the Pocket Yoga concept for the past two years but didn’t think and still don’t think that it should be put into production.

Here are pictures of LG’s latest concept phone from the MWC last week, it is equipped with solar panels allowing it to help the environment by reducing the need to use non-renewable resources.

Rolls-Royce has released the official details and images of its new and upcoming 200EX. While Rolls-Royce has deemed the Geneva-bound 200EX a concept, expect almost every exterior and interior detail to carry over to the production model when it arrives in 2010. So what is the 200EX going to be like? Think of the best cues from the Phantom and Drophead Coupe and fit them into a decidedly smaller package then you get the 200EX.
Based off the latest BMW 7 series platform, the 200EX spans 212.6 inches long, 83 inches wide and 61 inches tall, with a wheelbase of 129.7 inches. A new air suspension system hides behind the seven-spoke, 20-inch wheels, with the front hoops wrapped in 255/45 tires and the rears coated in 285/40 rubber.
