Questionable Tablet Images from Unreliable Source

Nowhereelse.fr posts an image that it claims is the Apple Tablet. A few other sites have already picked up on it, so we publish it here on Page 2. Nowhereelse's track record, however, is very poor.

The French site was also responsible for previous fake iPhone photos and seemingly unfounded iPhone case discoloration concerns.


We publish only because it's already gotten traction on other sites.

Update: Nowhereelse.fr confirms [Google translation] that the images were fake.

It looks fake, most likely photoshoped.

I don't like the bezel on that. Seems like it would be awkward to hold and use.

It looks identical to an iPod touch. I think Apple's design them can do better than that.

Clearly a fake.

It must be fake. The design lacks elegance, and is uninspiring. I expect more from Apple.

This is what I like about MacRumors, arn. You guys don't just post stuff to generate traffic. If an obvious fake crops up from a bad source, you only post it because lots of other sites have picked it up, too. But you give a big disclaimer.

MacRumors is one of the most credible rumors sites on the net. Thanks for the discretion.

If this is real, it is almost certain that it is a prototype design... it looks awful.

It has to be a fake. With all the the apple product line going to the more professional look. (exception with the low-end iPods and the polycarbonate MacBook) I just couldn't see them reverting back to the polycarbonate look. I think it will be aluminum if Johnny Ive has any input on the final product. I also don't think it is going to look like a large iPod Touch or iPhone with the home button.

That's just my input.

I just hope that it will be under $700. . . I want one. :D
