iSlate, watch and learn
« on: January 15, 2010, 03:23:51 PM »
On 27/01/10 Apple is going to release the iSlate, a tablet Mac.  Microsoft introduced tablet PCs years ago and have gone absolutely nowhere with the technology.  Apple is about to kick MS arse with their own technology.  Watch how it's done, folks.  

Hyperion or A-Eon or whatever is the name of the week need to watch and learn.  You don't introduce a product and tell people "you figure out what to do with it...." you don't introduce a produce with no price and tell people wait six months to actually have it.  And you don't introduce features that 99.99999% of the world have absolutely no use for and yet cost lots of money.

I'll order one on the 27th, I'll know what they cost and I'll be playing with it before summer (in the southern hemisphere) is over...

And a floppy drive!

Needs balls. A trackball is a lot easier to use than a touchpad or touch interface.

The point is Apple will make a commercial success out of something that's been around for a decade and has been a failure in the commercial marketplace.

Telstra here most likely, with Vodaphone and Optus later.  Wonder if you can buy it without a SIM card?

Read today it would be around 700 - 1000.00 and possible a monthly charge for the data connection to 3G networks (ATT and/or Verizon).
