Good eye! I'm unsure of it significance though as it uses the old windows logo and not the new, squared metro version.

If this is what Microsoft is announcing on Monday and not courier then they will fail HARD in the tablet market.

I don't really know anything about the logo versions. But I did go back to the video footage and confirmed whatever logo it is, that was in fact the Windows Logo at some point or another

I haven't heard anything about the courier for a long time, I was under the understanding it was dumped a long time back?

It is rumored that the tablet is going to be 7" and be a full tablet and e-reader. Courier was 7" and was a full tablet and would be perfect for being an e-reader because it is like a book.

They killed the courier. Today will not be a courier announcement.
This is the Windows 8 logo with the new windows logo design.

This device looks as though it may be an Acer Iconia w500, which is a Windows 7 Slate, based on the placement of the start button.

Hmm interesting... The button looks similar, but from looking at some pics the button looks to be off-sided a bit from the Acer unit...

I should have uploaded a video, but if you actually watched the show you see some of the device, and it doesn't really look like a Iconia (I could be wrong, I'm just mentioning what I saw).
