Haven’t seen the movie Inception yet but I quite like the musical cooperation by Hans Zimmer and Johnny Marr. Here is a video of the Inception premiere, which includes a live performance with orchestra.

Toshiba Libretto tablet with two screens
Interesting concept tablet computer from Toshiba running Windows 7. Reminds me a little bit of what Microsoft had planned with the Courier concept. I am not a big fan of touch keyboards in general but would love to try out this one, and see what kind of custom apps Toshiba has developed for it. According to eWeek, Toshiba will make this “two slates in one” notebook available in limited numbers “later this summer”. I will try to get my hands on one to play around with it.
Overview of Windows Phone 7
New Microsoft video provides an overview of key features in Windows Phone 7. I like the look and feel but will reserve judgement until I actually get to try it out on a real phone myself.

Really like the built-in camera. When will this thing be released? Can’t wait to find out more details.

Innovation = Insight, Plan and Commercialization?
“When I use the word innovation, I think of three interlocking components:
- Insight or inspiration suggesting an opportunity to do something different to create value
- An idea or plan to build an offering based on that insight or inspiration
- The translation of that plan into a successful business (in simple terms, commercialization)”
