iOS Convertible Devices, Apple’s Dream Tablet
IOS convertibles? Sure, OS X and iOS in one is a dream come true but if Apple’s new patent for integrating this devices together in the same tablet it sure looks like they are in for the long haul. The idea is appealing because the benefits for combining IOS and OS X in a handy and accessible gadget means a huge step in technology innovation and evolution. But the big question still remains, “Can this almost amazing feat be pulled off?” Let’s review the facts, iOS runs at 320×480, 960×540, and 1024×768 while MacBooks and iMacs has 1440×900 resolutions. issues regarding the size of the tablet may also be a deterrent because if you combine this two devices the over all look and design of the tablet will be compromised. This proves true basing on Apple’s released patent of the futuristic gadget. Sure the idea that you can actually manipulate the gadget to turn into a touch platform in different angles is appealing but who wants to carry around a five- pound tablet in a pocket that exist only when you own overalls. The thought that people would be walking around looking like farmers just so they can carry their year two thousand tablets is ridiculous and it is a proven fact that “man bags” still makes eyebrows rise.
If Apple still wants to pursue such an undertaking, the old adage would still apply “something has got to give”. Combining these devices will surely mean that not all of the features that we enjoy in separate OS X and iOS will be successfully added in laptop- tablet convertibles. The bulk alone and the energy to keep this one of a kind convertible device fully functional and customer appealing is a challenge to the Apple boys. It would sure be a nice and welcome surprise if Apple’s touch patents could pull this off and actually improve the design in the next ten years.
