How will the Apple tablet look like

Speculations are running high on everything, from Apple Tablet's positioning to name to features to looks.

In fact, the recent slew of PC tablet or Slate launches at the just-concluded Consumer Electronic Show (CES) are said to be aimed at stealing Apple Tablet's thunder (rumoured to be launched on January 27).

So, here's over to how the much anticipated Apple device may look like and will offer.
 

Mark Rolston, chief creative officer for Frog Design believes Apple won't market a tablet as a replacement for a workhorse laptop. Instead, Apple will describe a limited set of uses for the device at first, Rolston believes, and later Apple may broaden how it advertises the tas.

He pointed to the way the iPhone evolved from easy-to-use phone to multipurpose pocket computer a year after its debut with the advent of the App Store, which sells add-on software of all sorts.

The Apple tablet is likely to be named iSlate. Apple purchased the domain name iSlate.com in 2007. Some other rumoured names for the device include iTablet, iTouch, MacBook Touch, iPad, Net tablet and Canvas.
