The first thing it reminded me of was TVGuide, which I would think is closer to Apple's expectation for one major use for this device.The name 'iGuide' immediately made me think of satellite navigation or car navigation systems used in cars.
In the old old OLD days, kids would take a slate and chalk to school because pen and paper was not readily available. The slate was approximately 12"square, (similar dimensions to possible tablet?). I think I remember seeing some in the TV series Lttle House On The Prarie and often in old western movies.
So, iSlate is kind of duplicating this idea, but with a lot more technology of course, but similar size and certainly will be an educational device as well as an entertainment device as well.
iGuide would make sense as the software driving the iSlate to Guide users to whatever information, location or results the user requests.
Quick question, is it Apple or Axiotron that has "TabletMac" trademarked?
