Information of iTablet Apple

Interest in the hypothetical Apple iSlate or iTablet - the hybridized descendant of the iPhone / Touch iPod, the Mac and the Newton-never seems to die, as new (or recycled) rumors swirl with the approach of every Apple-sponsored gathering. The iPhone / Touch branch of the Apple family tree is beginning to unfold with new models and a true third-party development environment, so most of the foundations for a multitouch-enabled tablet device are already laid down. Yet, the machine remains forever on the horizon, a mere glimmer in every Apple fan's eye. Perhaps - as Apple competitors have discovered - the matter of making such a machine usable and polished to Apple standards is far more than a simple supersizing of what already exists. Given what we know about existing machines, it's instructive to look at what the iTablet / iSlate might be, along with some of the substantial interface issues that Apple will need to solve before such a machine can become reality.

Features of Apple iTablet

The iTablet will likely follow the evolving design themes emerging from Cupertino, continuing the convergence toward aluminum and black that characterize recent Apple machines. The critical acclaim and hotcakes-like acceptance of the MacBook Air guarantees that slimness and lightness will be a priority, and by their omission, optical drives will be given another small push toward obsolescence.

The mockups shown here are beautiful, but I think they're wrong in at least one other key respect - a touch-and stylus-enabled tablet from Apple would be running a scaled-up variant of the iPhone multitouch interface (Mobile OS X) rather than a scaled-down version of Mac OS X. This avoids the problems that Windows has on Tablet PCs, where traditional Windows interface elements designed for precise mouse control are pressed into service for use with the highly-imprecise fingertip (or somewhat better stylus). Instead, the iTablet would have a new version of the slick iPhone OS X that's specifically designed for touch input. Controls are sized and larger tasks are logically set up for touch interactions. Gestures for navigation and zooming are fully integrated and intuitive. A pressure-sensitive, Wacom stylus-type might be included as an additional input device, for the artists and graphic designers who would be a key (read "drooling at the thought") market for such a machine.
