OK… this came up top of the list on glims for “apple tablet predictions”. Don’t know why it says, “be first to comment”… sort of strange.
Here’s my prediction: Everyone’s talking about which network it will connect to; the possibility of tremendous apps; virtual keyboard; multi-gesturing etc.
I say all of that, obviously. But the REAL change will be handwriting recognition, translated optionally into a document with “hand-shortcuts” and gestures for formatting the doc.
ALONGSIDE that will be the capability of being, (or just plain being) a graphic artist tablet, and perhaps a mild engineering interface as well. In other words, from designing new widgets, layouts, sketch/drafting/CAD… to graphic arts or just plain doodling, the tablet will do all of the above including translated handwriting.
