My 10 Crazy Apple iSlate Predictions

My 10 Crazy Apple iSlate Predictions

1. It actually exists.

2. It runs both Mac apps and iPhone apps.

3. It’s waterproof. Yep, reading in the bath is a reality.

4. You can download and read any e-zine in full colour, unlike the Kindle, etc. (Think the whole Apple ecosytem strategy here, folks. Remember, iPod plus iTunes, iPhone plus apps. Now it’ll be iSlate plus books, movies, magazines, presentations.)

5. It does voice calls, like a phone.

6. It’s also a TV.

7. It can run with or without a SIM card.

8. You can connect it to an external monitor or data projector.

9. It has awesome sound quality for watching movies.

10. It will be seen as both a business tool and a tool for students (think iTunesU).

11. Bonus point: It’s not actually called the iSlate.

Oh, and off course all the obvious things like wifi, 3G+, multi-touch, OLED screens, etc, etc.

My list of predictions is not based on science, research or even insider knowledge (of which I have none). It’s based on some wild imaginings I have been having about this mystical device.

I wonder what my prediction score will be, out of 11?
