Funny enough, way back when, Apple had already designed and developed a
model for a Newton based "Tablet" Never mentioned, but pictures were
available for the public.
Some Apple employees were rather upset about this.
Then-CEO Michael Spindler was featured in a press-photo with his arms around
a variety of Apple technology. One of the items, on the side, was a nice,
legal-sized 'tablet' with a out-of-focus Newton Logo on it.
