Apple Tablet – Come To Me

Tech

Oh my googleygoo! Gizmodo has some hersay info on the often rumoured Apple Tablet that may or may not be coming out soon or later:

The device, which I’ve held mock ups of, is going to have a 10 inch screen, and when I saw it looked just like a giant iPhone, with a black back— although that design could change at any time” they said, “with the same black resin back, and the familiar home button.

This sounds pretty inevitable. Apple said they’d never make a netbook and this looks like their way of getting out of that never-say-never kind of slip up.

So I ask…

    I’m not very techy… but I think if I had more money, I’d just rather get an iPhone for the same functions. This sounds like its about the same size as the Kindle, which I have also been intrigued by but will not buy. Its like all those Star Trek pads that people used and call “paperwork” are becoming a reality. We’re such cyborgs.

    I’m with Phronk. I have the iPhone for random stuff, the laptop for portable computing, and the G5 for the big stuff.

    I think I’m too technologically inept for life on this planet. Would you believe that when I’m out on the road running road rests I still take notes in a notebook. Not the electronic kind, but a genuine paper-with-metal-binding type book that needs a pen to operate.

    I’m sure one of these electronic devices would revolitionise my writing process, however I’m all about retro appeal!

    my heart fluttered a little… I have been looking at netbooks for something small and light when I travel, but since apple said they would never make one I thought it would be windows crap or maybe linux. This sounds perfect for me.

    I don’t see much use for it. Maybe for quick notes in a meeting or something? Otherwise, if I’m on the go I have my iPhone, and if I’m at a desk I have a laptop (with a full keyboard). I’ll still drool over it and want one, but for absolutely no good reason.

    I nearly do all my computing on my iPhone except for heavy coding or massive photoshop stuff. But I bet I could adapt if I had one of these (and it was powerful enough to like the system hog called CS4).
