Microsoft haven’t been very secretive of their plans to create a single ecosystem , which could unite all of the devices, such as phones, tablets, computers, laptops and so on, but are they also planning to go even further, are we going to see e-book readers and TVs running Windows 8? According to the most recent rumors, that is exactly what the future holds for Microsoft’s platform and some even say, that the company is already working on e-book readers, running their OS and, of course, using the Metro interface. This is actually quite a smart move, considering the popularity of these devices in the last couple of years. Of course, this rumor begs the question about the possible cost of licensing Windows 8 for such a gadget, which, after all, has to be cheap enough for people to buy. B. A.
