Is Moorea Microsoft's "Killer App" for Tablets?

By Klint Finley / April 18, 2011 06:30 AM / Comments

Many geeks still mourn Microsoft's stillborn Courier project. For those that don't remember, the Courier was a small, dual screen, hinged tablet that Microsoft officially killed off in April 2010 before releasing. The hardware is dead, but ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley thinks some of the software might live on in Office 15. Some supposed leaked screenshots of Office 15 include a new app codenamed "Moorea," which Foley thinks looks similar to an application seen in leaked Courier videos.

Foley asks "If Moorea brings this interface to life, maybe Microsoft will position Moorea as a 'killer app' for the coming Windows 8 tablets/slates?"
