I haven't read through all of the comments, so I'm sure someone has mentioned this already: why is the tablet floating over the keyboard? That's one hell of a drop shadow they added there.

Ha,ha, why are so many people sweating about what it will look like or the fakers even putting out pix?
As posted before common sense dictates the design.
A 10 inch screen takes up the proportionate space it needs.
All the connectors etc. are on the outside of the screen or frame.
So, an iphone stretched, a MacAir , just the lid/screen.
That means touch screen for the keyboard, more gestures.
What will define it is what it can do and not what it can't!
PS: I hope it comes with a headband holder, so I can strap it to my head/ear to make those phone calls

Exactly. If this product is going to be a tablet in the sense that we already know, how much different can it be? This is a black rectangle, its probably going to be a black rectangle.
This looks 'shopped.... I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few 'shops in my time.
But seriously, as much as I thought it was real at first, it's not, sorry ppl.

looks frightening similar to the new HP slate

Or frighteningly similar to a Dell monitor...
or to get the ardent apple followers in a frenzy. i am sure this is exciting for some, i would prefer to see updated hardware refresh across the line and ....gasp and more transparent and timely hardware update cycle moving forward for all their hardware. You don't see windows boxes wondering if they are going to get the latest and geatest, they just get them.
For what it's worth, we don't believe this images are legitimate, but provided for interest and discussion.
You could easily do that by actually just staying at home far faaaar away from an apple store and also staying away from a dedicated Apple discussion Blog.
3d render
Fake
wide shot
reflection wrong - perpective on the left side completely screwed. Shine and fall off wrong.
Shadow is dark and soft underneath the tablet but light and sharp from the laptop
close up
reflection looks like an actual sceenshot on the screen. should have applied as screen or overlay.The shadow is actually created by Ambient occlusion probably on a flat plane. it's shadowed on both sides!
If you are going to do a exact copy of the an iphone - why not include the home button.
Personally I am hoping it's a hybrid.
Full OSX but with mobile apps.
Hybride touch and pen - handsfree wacom cintiq! With Photoshop would be awesome.
£400 - 500
Aluminium - none of this plastic rubbish.
Oh and while we are at it....
This would be a very cool home automation device
Never under stood why you can't run iphone apps on the desktop. obviously only some apps woud work well.

You all will probably disagree, but thicker for a larger battery would be something I would be willing to live with rather than skinny and anemic.
Fakes and bad ones at that.
These were posted on Apple Insider a couple of days ago by someone who was very enthusiastic about carbon fibre.
The shadow-casting in the render is not very well done. IMO

Uhm... no, you don't. I'd believe that Pixar may get some XServes and MacPros early because they may be needed in movie production, but don't expect us to believe that Apple sends over new consumer products just for fun.
Ha ha! That's a joke right, given that anyone whose ever stood line at a grocery store has seen quite a few Photoshops in their time.
Several previous rumours have mentioned an iPhone like Home button (which seems very plausible) and these images lack that home button. Also there are numerous strange things to notice in these images. So I'd vote for fake and made in Germany
Duh! All EU keyboards are pretty much alike, with exception of UK who wants to be different (atleast at somepoint).
You know, if you added up all of the time you waste posting how much you don't want something, you might have a lot of extra time to do stuff that you DO like.
