Here is an initial concept rendering of the iPad (due to be unveiled for real in two days!). You'll notice a few features:
The two way camera described in the post below is shown here, with the camera facing down. I thought this would be a perfect place to show the apple logo, which is slightly raised, and gives the user grip to quickly turn the camera over to face them.
We described the ports and buttons before, so I quickly highlighted them here. The key is minimal. Two USB ports, one power cable port (see my concept about a wireless plug) and only one socket for a mic/headphone combination (why do you need both anyway?).
The home button and power on/off button are combined. How? Simply holding the button for more than a few seconds will call a command on the interface to verify shutting down the iPad.
Also note the aluminum backing of the iPad (I will render the back of this tomorrow to show some potential features)
Last but no means least, note that the iPad interface rotates as you rotate. You can type/paint/draw in landscape or portrait mode. The interface is so sensitive it can pick up the lightest stroke of a brush, as well as changing the nature of the drawn stroke depending on pressure.
This is my initial rendering. Over the coming weeks, I'll be posting renderings of how I think the interface might work!
Till January 27th!
