January 21, 201016 yr really how gullible can you be, it's pretty much the same rendition we've seen before. No third party vendors, particularly what appears to be a minor player would get access early.
January 21, 201016 yr Author "lets anyone paint like a Picasso." What's a Picasso? This is a little scary.
January 21, 201016 yr really how gullible can you be, it's pretty much the same rendition we've seen before. No third party vendors, particularly what appears to be a minor player would get access early. I simply asked if this was an Oops.

January 22, 201016 yr The Apple Tablet Interface Must Be Like This - apple tablet - Gizmodo Interesting article from Gizmodo. Great article! I'm very interested to see what this device will be like. I am still using an old Palm TX for scheduling, contacts, notes, and medical programs. Its screen is getting old and less responsive, and the battery starting to die, but I don't want to buy an expensive new Palm TX or pay $299 to get it fixed since it is a dying (or already dead) OS. I lust after an iTouch, but I MUST be able to use a physical keyboard because I routinely enter quick sentences here and there as I update patient info while I'm on the phone or after a patient encounter (I touch type very quickly, but thumb type horribly). I also work at two offices, and sometimes enter info from home or on the road, so need it to be very portable. I still write paper notes in the office, but in the future will likely switch to electronic health records kept in the cloud. I have a colleague who as of a year ago still carried around a Newton, he loved it so much! Most of the med students carry an iPhone/iTouch, but they don't need to type on a keyboard like I do. Nothing that I know of quite fits the bill, but I am hoping this will!
January 22, 201016 yr I wouldn't hold your breath for a physical keyboard on the device itself. I do hope that you will be able to use a physical keyboard either wirelessly via Bluetooth or wired via a dock of some kind. But it wouldn't surprise me if even that wasn't an option.
January 22, 201016 yr Apple already makes a perfectly nice Bluetooth keyboard that I'm typing on right now. Seems crazy that they wouldn't just let the Tablet pair with that if you want to. But, as Thrice says, they go their own way.
January 22, 201016 yr If the ~$1000 price point is correct it better be able to pair with a damn keyboard.
January 23, 201016 yr Even though my hopes are low, I'd really hope for a modified OS X rather than something based on the iPhone OS. I love to have a certain feel of control with my computers and I think OS X is the perfect blend of control, simplicity and real-world usability. I wouldn't really care for a full-size iPhone. (I say this now, watch me with my tablet in two months )
January 23, 201016 yr If they price it for $1,000 I'd be worried it could fail like Windows Tablet PC where the tablets were more expensive than a full laptop with the same performance. At $1,000 many people would take a $999 white Macbook instead. I'd like to see a $699 price point, or less, but $799 may not be unreasonable unless it's not much more useful than an over sized Touch.
January 23, 201016 yr Ok, let's say I'd prefer a modified version of the real OS X rather than a stupid-people-proof version of OS X then.
January 23, 201016 yr I think Apple is due for a FAIL, and the form factor here presents a bunch of challenges. I like Apple and use its products, but Monkey say iTabletJesus is false prophet.
