Free update for Windows 8 coming later in the year, possibly to smaller tablets
The first major update for Windows 8 is coming later in the year under the banner of Windows 8.1.
Previously known by the less obvious codename Windows Blue, the free update will do much the same thing as the old service packs through which Microsoft issued major changes to prior operating systems.
The news, reported by Engadget, was broken to attendees of today's JP Morgan's Technology Media & Telecom Conference by Microsoft's Windows Division CMO and CFO Tami Reller.
"It will deliver the latest new innovations across an increasingly broad array of form factors of all sizes, display, battery life and performance, while creating new opportunities for our ecosystem,"," she said, as recorded by Pocket Lint.
"It will provide more options for businesses, and give consumers more options for work and play."
