A tablet to rule them all?
I want an Apple tablet so bad!
We’re pretty sure the ‘iSlate’ is coming and as with any yet to be released Apple product I want one already. But I’ve got to ask; where does the tablet fit in?
The new Apple tablet has arrived (via Rego Korosi)
We know it’s going to be bigger than a phone (a 10 inch screen is rumoured) and that it’s not going to have a hardware keyboard. So, we’re going to have a portable that won’t fit in your pocket but is still as impractical for serious use as the iPhone. That seems like an uncomfortable fit between a phone and a laptop, and I already have both of those. It just breaks out of the three screen model:
- Entertainment. The sit back, relax, big screen.
- Work. The lean forward, concentrate, medium screen.
- Mobile. The on-the-go, always-on, small screen.
The lines have been blurring though, we enjoy more entertainment on-the-go today and we’re now always connected to the office. So maybe it’s time for Apple to revolutionise another market, even if it’s one they’ve had a shot at before (with the Newton) and one that others have consistently failed in.
Are we looking at a product which will be your ‘one device’? An easy on-the-go computer, an entertainment device, a phone (with headset of course) and something that’s powerful enough to be a desktop replacement when docked? Well, actually, that sounds awesome. As I said; I want an Apple tablet so bad!
