No. That does not prove it. How about explaining how you close apps? I'm interested to know how you did that. If there is really just a big button for that then it's pretty dumb. Can you open two windows of Safari next to each other?

If you close windows by clicking a "home button" then if you have two different safari windows over each other, how do you switch to the hidden one to close it?

He has a hardware linked up to the touch surface. All he does is touch a button on the CPU holder and it closes the app.

Lots of questions... I feel like these are basic flaws with either the OS or your hoax. :p

Oh, also about being caught... If you were going to be caught, posting serial numbers and stuff like that are much more likely to result in being caught than showing us the outside of the device rather than the UI. PLENTY of people fake multi-touch UI online. All you do is play back a movie and move your hands as you practice it. Simple.

No comment for this. Which is why I gave him the benefit of doubt.

If the OP is so worried about getting caught, he shouldn't be. If this really were real, then this thread and all it's contents would not exist anymore...

This new video doesn't help make me believe it's real... but what would is a video of the actual touch screen. All this shows is a dev platform and a touchscreen monitor(which are easy to find) and a fake OS modeled on OSX....Show us the actual tablet and we'll believe you :rolleyes:

I have a question,

do you think it will have the ability of to plug in a camera of a SD card, to upload pics from a camera?

I think it will, personally. They added that to the new MBPs so why not to this. An even bigger question is, will it have a camera :confused:

Hey OP, can you download a new app from the app store (preferably a complex game) and run it (for a while)? I'm curious as to how the download process goes and where it goes to (is there a desktop or are all the apps on the bottom?).

If you do this, you will for sure shut people up (as long as it's a complicated game).

I don't think Apple would make the apps look so cut on the corners... if it's so close to production, it should be streamlined... but i like the concept.

*cough*

I hate sharp corners...

People say not real because it is just touch tablet with fake os. does multi touch prove it? also, proof that app store apps work. This be my last upload, I cannot risc caught.

Gonewiththewind: I am an iPhone Developer and while I think it's definitely possible to hack up something that looks like what you've demonstrated it would be a lot of work. Even multi-touch is possible on the simulator and even on Snow Leopard. The technology looks pretty impressive.

The only thing that still get's me is that you pause before every touch -- it almost makes me thing you're timing your touches to something that's pre-recorded. Also the response on the screen is slightly off from your gestures. Even the original iPhone with a processor that is for sure slower than whatever this Tablet has was more responsive.

Rather than posting more videos and risking getting fired, can you provide us with some information?
1) Can you maximize windows to take the whole screen?
2) Looks like iPhone apps are run in a simulated iPhone environment. How do you rotate to landscape just one app and not the entire tablet?
3) Keyboards for iPhone apps are maintained in the iPhone App window probably for compatibility reasons. For "native" tablet apps like Maps or Safari that you showed, what does the keyboard look like?
4) What are the dimensions of the screen? It looks really big... much bigger than something you'd put on a 10" screen.

Thank you for sharing with us!

Heres the real bubble burster that shows its NOT REAL:


In the web surfing picture it says Google Mobile. A tablet would NOT surf using mobile sites. It would be a full version of Safari, not an iphone mobile version.

Very smart observation! Unless this is meant to be a bigger version of the iPod Touch, which is what some speculate...

No...I think for Web App compatibility they will keep it the mobile version... maybe an option to switch but they have to support all the people that built web-apps.

Very true. You are probably correct.

That's asinine logic. You don't work for Apple, you don't know what they would and would not do in terms of browser identification.

If it's meant to be a mobile device, chances are it would identify its self as such and Google, among others, would redirect to its mobile version sites.

i agree, we have no clue how it will work

1024 x 768

...
4) What are the dimensions of the screen? It looks really big... much bigger than something you'd put on a 10" screen.
...
!

The screen size seems to be 1024 x 768 infered from the number of app-icons (13) in the 'doc' and comparing them to the iPhones 4 app-icons @ 320 pixel width.

With the rumored 10'' screen this would give us ~130 dpi compared to the iPhones ~160.

So, sherwinzadeh, the dimensions are not too big for a tablet - just the screen of the dev-kit has a lower dpi and thus is bigger.

Gonewiththewind could you pls take the sunpower javascript benchmark on video?

http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html

also show us websurfing pls with safari. :)

but hey people. it looks like a tweakt dashboard. maybe every app he shows us is just a xcode made widget running on a modbook pro? http://www.axiotron.com/index.php?id=modbookpro ?? no need for hack anything

My initial thought was the ModBook, and I'm still sticking to that... If this were the real 'tablet' then why does he use the dev platform to control volume and closing programs... why not use the home button and volume rocker..... :rolleyes:

compared to the videos from gonewiththewind, this one looks like a
simple fake - no animations when the window appears and an unfamiliar looking alert view...

No but it looks like it has the same interface; so it might be an earlier build of the OS.
There now are 2 persons who leak videos and they both seem to have the same interface. SO I think the pictures and movies Gonewiththewind is posting are real

I don't think a ModBook has multitouch. But it could be true what you say

Hmm it could easily be faked though. I mean I could take the dock pattern, download iphone icons, plop them in, and animate the whole thing using a timed slideshow in keynote.
