Apple Tablet, ‘iPad’ is 10.2” and coming in Jan (According to German Kids Magazine.)

Posted on 25 November 2009 by Chippy



My daughter picked up a(nother) teenie mag yesterday. Apparently this particular one is a must-read for the latest Miley Cyrus info although it appears that they’re getting some good tech scoops too. Check this out. It’s the new Apple tablet with a 10.2” screen and it ’should’ be called the ‘iPad’.’ It’s coming in January.

    It seems that even the teen mags starting to feel the hype about the tablet. I call it the iPad for month now and i Hope it won’t look like that or will not fit in any of my bags properly.
    January wouldn’t make sense, it will probably come june/july if you ask me.

    Very interesting! Though I’m very skeptic. Too many fake “iPad” things around to be certain.

    I am sure the publishers would be the first to know about this. But I hope it doesn’t resemble a “fat” nano.

    This is the first solid info we’ve seen in month — I can really get behind this rumor!

    This is clearly not a real Apple photo, saw another similar version of this concept illustration somewhere else and it was just a mock-up meant to illustrate what someone thought the tablet might look like….

    While I’d love to buy a real Apple tablet, all these rumors that keep popping up are getting really tiring…just seems to be wishful thinking and a way to get more hits on websites…

    Two home buttons?
    AWFUL aspect ratio?
    Leaked into a teen magazine?

    I’m gonna go with “no” on this one :-)

    No aspect ratio for multimedia, awful screen size for e-reading, suspicious inclusion of a second home button (although it make some sort of sense if you about this as a one hand holding device. If you take one button out, say the right one, you discriminate the lefties) and appearance in a publication with doubtful tech info sources (since their main interest is Ms. Montana) makes it look a joke.

    This is obviously a fake done by some kid who’s trying himself on Photoshop. Turn the acutal iPhone by 90º, elongate it a bit more than double. That’s where the button has its shadow from.

    I think it’s great news about Apple Tablet PC and certainly it’s going to be a great offer for users and they will get benefits of it.

    Well the German Kids magazine turned out to be correct! It surprises me that iot was in there though. Not the sort of thing you expect teenagers to be concerned with!
