Apple product prediction
This prediction is likely going to sound evolutionary rather than revolutionary. It is not based upon any insider knowledge or hot tips. This product seems to be a logical next step.
Apple will likely come out with a multi-touch laptop and it will likely be in the tablet PC form factor. The company has already pioneered this concept with the iPhone to great success. Many of the gestures are now available on their laptops, but by using the touchpad. This next generation product will allow more natural interaction by directly manipulating objects on the screen.
When will it come out?
I predict this will happen relatively soon. Microsoft has been hard at work incorporating multi-touch in Windows 7.
