Apple iPad?

So hey ! Looks like Apple may be coming out with a Tablet personal computer - alike after all , accord to some hunky-dory investigative study by The Register . A filing made in May by Apple ( but only revealed this calendar week ) details plans for a “ handheld computer , ” a ( rather uninterestingly - styled ) keyboard - less microcomputer that may do as a front closing to iTunes and other iLife apps , as well as serve well as a remote to the AirPort Express . eWeek columnist Matthew Rothenberg had reported back in ’ 03 of a tablet from Apple , with handwriting recognition that “ resembles a large iPod with an 8 - inch diagonal screen … and runs Mac OS X. ”

With the new iMac rumored to be an all - in - one gimmick that might replace the need for a larger , iBook - sized tablet , perhaps a smaller screen is in the work from apple . Either room , hoo boy ! Could be a fun intersection – if one without a hazard in hell as becoming as great as the iPod .
