1. The next wave of personal computing from Apple.

Set to be introduced in late spring or early summer 2010, the Apple iSlate is a new tablet computer with a high-resolution touch screen and sleek black design. The device is about the size of a telephone book cover, but less than 1/2-inch thick.

The iSlate offers all the functionality of an Apple laptop (e.g., iMac Air), but in a sleek one-piece design with many new extras. The virtual keyboard is similar to the iPod "electronic keyboard," but is almost the same size as a regular physical keyboard.

Besides thousands of computer applications, the iSlate also plays movies, music and games. With optional services, it can also work as a video-conferencing device (using the built-in video camera) and a telephone. Of course, it comes with built-in WiFi access and optional 3G wireless Internet access.

The iSlate takes advantage of recent advances in super-thin flash memory, battery design, smudge-resistant coatings and thin-film transistor display technology. Essentially, the iSlate is an advanced next generation "hybrid" of the iPod Touch, iPhone and MacBook Air laptop, but with many new cool features and a stunning new user experience. It may eventually replace the standard laptop for many users.

Someone who will instincitively purchase any product that is released which is preceeded by a small case i, regardless of cost, function or aesthetics.

It's no use trying to question why they have bought a mp3 player, computer, or phone that is at least twice its value than the identical product sitting next to it, as the iSlave is convinced the rounded corners make up for this surplus in cost.

Once an iSlave has bought the infamous iTrio consisting of the iMac, iPhone and iPod it is unfortuantely too late. Once these products break like every other product in the world, they won't be able to bring themselves to criticise it without fearing they have brought a bad name to their cult.
John: "My Apple made products have broken, but my brand loyalty is so high i'm just going to send more money to Apple while still claiming to be sticking it to the man."

Jack: "No he's becomming an iSlave! Quick John you can still be saved! Buy this MP3 player, it is the same but half the price!"

John: "No..... must...buy.... more iStuff...."

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus
