Apple Event set for March 2

 

Apple will be holding hopefully there "iPad 2" unveiling on March 2. There has not ben any official invites sent out yet but hopefully this will be the event.. We will see March 2nd. 

Apple Patent Showing "Smart Bezel"

Apple has been publishing a lot of new patents, from a 'Magic Mouse with display', to 'Cover Flow-like spiral interface' but nothing like the latest 'Smart bezel'. The patent details the bezel all the way around the device will be touch sensitive and contain touch sensors, pressure sensors, light emitters, haptic actuators, and accelerometers. With all these in the bezel you wouldn't need to have settings for volume control or brightness and much more. Also the patent seems to describe ways to use the bezel for locking/unlock a device, toggle a device on and off, and toggle silent/load function. This could actually get rid of the lock/unlock button and home button and create the button-less iPad. This could also make its way onto Apple's MacBooks/Macbook Pro's. It is obvious that Apple is looking for an alternate input method to push their technology further in the tablet market.

Will It Shred? The iPad Skateboard

The folks over at Fuel TV decided to test out the iPad's shredablity by using it as a skateboard. Turns out it's possible. Who knew?

Could This Be The New iPad Mini?

This guy is supposedly a huge popstar and a race car driver in Taiwan. Weirdly these two different jobs are far apart though that seemed to get this guy's hands on an unreleased Apple iPad Mini? I call shopped on this one but be my guess to prove me wrong.
