I guessed it would be about a ipad type device using W8.

most likely, could also be a new xbox as gaming is now a very huge market and as we all know microsoft has a much better console and much better support and better exclusive games, and some of the best game devs in the world such as bungie havent said anything about new games so they could be waiting until the new consoles are revealed.
also a new xbox 720 document containing 56 pages was leaked, heres a small part
'Microsoft outlines a competitive differentiation for its next-generation Xbox, including support for Blu-ray, native 3D output and glasses, concurrent apps, and additional sensor and peripheral support. Alongside a promised 6x performance increase, there’s also mention of true 1080p output with full 3D support and an “always on” state for the console. A slide on core hardware indicates that the next Xbox will be designed to be scalable in the number of CPU cores and their frequencies. Microsoft appears to have been debating whether to use six or eight ARM or x86 cores clocked at 2GHz each with 4GB of DDR4 memory alongside three PPC cores clocked at 3.2GHz each for backwards compatibility with existing Xbox 360 titles.'

Checked the news site and found this. Looks like a app for Xbox.
