Microsoft’s October 11 event could involve slate device announcements, unicorn sightings

Thought you knew all there was to know about Microsoft’s October 11 event already?

Specifically, Steve Ballmer and crew are expected to “announce Slate devices which will be available for the crucial holiday season.” We can’t think of anything that would make the Redmond CEO happier, but let’s not go building our hopes up too high. Just one revolution from Microsoft will be enough for us.
