CES gets glimpse of iPad2 Case and Mock-up

David Allen — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 06:00:05 +0000

As the time gets close to when the iPad2 is launched we have been seeing an increase in supposedly genuine cases for the yet to be announced device. However, one of the more credible designs has turned up at the CES 2011 in Las Vegas. Not only that, inside the case is a aluminium iPad2 mock up clearly designed to show how the device will fit into the case, but the closet yet to what we think the device will look and feel like. Visitors would be surprised to find that the current iPad would not fit the case either, as further clue that the new device will be slimmer and lighter. From this case design, we can get an idea on the device that it has been designed for, it will have the home button close to the bottom, a larger speaker, camera or cameras and it is going to be slimmer with it tapering to the edges, does this sound like the new iPad2!

David Allen — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 13:00:16 +0000

This may seem to be something of an amazing story, speakers that can be fitted to a laptop, but remains invisible to the naked eye while the quality of the sound is second to none. It uses a motor array, which vibrate a clear membrane. This new technology has come from Emo Labs, it was shown at the CES in Las Vegas although small it caught the attention of a few people but too many as to make it one of the stars of the show, we have to disagree this is worthy of the publicity.
