    I always wanted an iPad without bezel but I wonder how they’d detect false input (e.g your fingers resting on the iPad). They have this technology already but I wonder how it performs when there is no bezel at all.

    Steve Jobs is dead and it's an artist's concept and not a shipping product. Good job buying a product on the verge of a refresh though!

    You'd think they'd have engineers and testing people to develop a solution for this problem.

    If this comes out (and works good with palm rejection) it would be pretty amazing
