Microsoft Unveils Xbox One.
Yesterday Microsoft (MSFT) unveiled the highly anticipated Xbox One
calling it "the ultimate all-in-one entertainment system." The device
allows usurers to instantly switch between games, live TV, movies, Skype and
the internet using voice recognition and hand jesters. Xbox One also allows
multi tasking such as watching TV and browsing the internet or taking a Skype
call at the same time. The design is similar to set-top box and has an improved
controller, improved Xbox Live UI, improved app and game loading. Switching
times have been dramatically improved as you move to different application and
the device has new voice and gesture controls. Pre-market: 34.91 +0.06 (0.17%)
