Predictions And Reality

About a month ago I made some predictions about Apple's event on January 27th. Let's take a look on the results:

- "iTablet": 100%
Yep, iPad is there 

- iPhone OS 3.5/4.0 (should be the same OS for tablet, makes sense): 100%
OK, the version number is 3.2 but should be 4.0 when it's ready. So yes, this is the same OS as for iPhone. 

- iLife '10: 90%
This is a weird one, because january is the annual time for iLife updates.

- some TV deals: 50%
- own maps app/service: 20%
- Safari update (it's time): 20%

100% missed :-) 

- I don't believe the rumors about the "iSlate" name. It sounds awful.
100% true. Although I don't like the name iPad either.

One More Apple Tablet Concept

This is nice tablet concept by some student, but I would say it's rather MS Surface inspired than an Apple product. Anyway, worth a look.
