In Part 3 of my Axiotron ModBook InkShow series, I take a look at how the ModBook performs as a Tablet PC using Apple's InkWell technology: InkPad, WriteAnywhere, and Rotation. In short - Apple has a long way to go.

Be sure to watch Part 1, where I tour the ModBook and review some of the software included with the ModBook; and Part 2 where I see how the ModBook performs as a Vista-based Tablet PC using Bootcamp and VMWare.

  Apple Tablet PC rumors have been brewing for years, but they have hit their peak over the past several months with hints that Apple has something in the works, and the latest rumblings about Asus confirming that Apple is working on something. Whether it is touch or touch + ink or nothing at all remains to be seen.

That said, Warner posed an interesting question to me several weeks back wondering if Leopard was poised for touch, and how the current features "stack" up. Having been a Mac user for quite some time, I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the things Apple is doing with Leopard that just might show where they could be headed. Also in that light, I take a look at some user experience issues that would need some serious attention if touch were enabled on Leopard. It goes without saying that if Apple were ever going to do touch on a MacBook, it would need to be optimized in some major areas.
