It would seem that a PDA " Made in APPLE " is on the point to be born! the iWalk (its name remains to be confirmed) could be well one of the surprises announced by Steve Jobs for MacWorld Expo which begins Monday! the iWalk would use MacOS X " light ", with a brushed interface, and buttons similar to those of QuickTime 5. Moreover, the use of this apparatus seems to be done by the use of a stylet on the screen, with a recognition of the rather powerful writing. It would be equipped with an Internet navigator, several ports (entered and left audio, FireWire port, infra-red port).
Anyone want to guess what will be on the Apple.com homepage on Monday?
I am thinking a a message similar to the ones we have been getting for the last 7 days, with a background image of the mystery product (that is a faint outline that can't barely be seen).
This thread is getting so engrossing, that I won't close the window until after the keynote - I can't resist the insane sense of geeky humor that oozes out of the erm, hyperlinks. Anyhow, thats that for my medical school exam on Wednesday - I never wanted to be a Doctor anyway <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />

P.S. Don't worry about me (as if you would!) - It's only a mock, and I'll probably do better than many, though that really isn't saying that much....
Well, at first I thought that they just copied the rumors from Spymac, but the prices are included with the specifications....In legal term it means that they are now obliged to provide those products to whoever wants to buy them.
Under the French laws those guys are in serious trouble if it is just a rumor....

I think they just copied spymac "to be prepared":
"Il semblerait qu' un PDA "Made in Apple" soit sur le point de voir le jour ! l'iWalk (son nom reste Ã* confirmer) pourrait bien être l'une des surprises annoncées par Steve Jobs pour la MacWorld Expo qui commence lundi ! l'iWalk utiliserait un MacOS X "light", avec une interface brossée, et des boutons similaires Ã* ceux de QuickTime 5. En outre, l'utilisation de cet appareil semble se faire par l'emploi d'un stylet sur l'écran, avec une reconnaissance de l'écriture assez puissante. Il serait pourvu d'un navigateur internet, de plusieurs ports (entrée et sortie audio, port FireWire, port infrarouge)."</strong><hr></blockquote>
