The Apple Tablet Week - The Apple Tablet


Dates Back to 1988

Since Wednesday is going to be the day the revolutionary and fantasized 'Apple Tablet/Slate/Pad (or whatever the !&*! you want to call it),' I have dedicated this week to it and only stories about the Tablet.


Apple started working on Newton in 1989, but as this infographic shows, the first seeds of tablet technology were sown well over a hundred years ago.

While we don't expect the iSlate iPad Apple tablet to come with a 19th-century stylus, this still provides great perspective on how long it's taken to get us to this point. Let's hope it lives up to history's expectations. [lalawag]
