Note that you never see the stylus tip meeting the screen.

Note also that the text 'floats' a bit with respect to the rest of
the video, particularly the actual unit.

My guess? Hardware mockup with a printout as the screen (which
explains why it's so bright when it obviously isn't backlit), and a
video layer added afterwards for the text/ink.

Nice work, but I'm guessing that at *best* it was a prototype
mockup for internal concept demo only... somewhere. Not necessarily
Apple.
