I told you last night that at the beginning of the 2000s, Apple was developing what we know today as law iPad, but the product from that time looks a little different and was slightly bigger. In these images you have a comparison between the prototype developed then and the iPad 2 tablet, and at first glance it seems that Apple wanted to develop a MacBook with a touchscreen and not a tablet. The prototype developed then had a screen with a diagonal of almost 13 inches and 1 inch thickness, so it was very different from the iPad tablet as we know it today, or from the first model of this product.
The old prototype of the iPad was 3 times thicker than the iPad 2 and had a screen that offered 40% more space for viewing images, so we are talking about a product that would definitely have been successful at the time, especially since it doesn't look really that bad. Of course, Apple chose to launch it 8 years later and the wait was auspicious because the iPad is now the most popular tablet in the world.
