The iPad circa 1994, as envisioned by the Knight Ridder Information Design Lab in Boulder, CO.
Tablets will be a whole new class of computer. They’ll weigh under two pounds. They’ll be totally portable. They’ll have a clarity of screen display comparable to ink on paper. They’ll be able to blend text, audio, and graphics together. And they’ll be a part of our daily lives around the turn of the century. We may still use the computer to create information, but we’ll use the tablet to interact with information, reading, watching, listening.
The only problem with their tablet was that they were a decade and a half ahead of their earliest customers.
The future is now.
Wow!
The future is now.
Watch out! For 1990s tablets and “creative” neck ties. Oh, and giant shoulder pads too.
