Another Apple Prototype Leaked: the iBox!!

Illustrator James Gurney has found a prototype of Apple’s next big release: the iBox. This is big, guys. I can’t say anything that James can’t say better than I can, and since he’s the maker of this discovery, I’ll let him have the floor.

Look what someone accidentally left in a laundromat in Italy—a working prototype of Apple’s much-rumored new iBox, ahead of the official launch.

It’s a lot smaller than the MacBook Pro, and even a bit narrower than the iPad. The design of the outside is very simple, with no connection ports at all. It keeps to the same simple brushed aluminum look with rounded corners. It’s a bold step into the wireless, portable, creative suite market.

When you open up the hinged upper lid, the iBox interior is filled with 29 different graphic art tools, each of which responds to a variety of hand movements. The interfaces are fairly intuitive, with a variety of mark-making potential.

Problems: The hue range is limited. The receptive surfaces will be sold separately by third party vendors. And the the gray undo tool isn’t compatible with all the rendering devices.

This is a launch day purchase for me, guys. I will camp for this shit. For real.
