Photos of the earliest prototype of iPad has been unearthed by OnApple. The photos show a 10 year old iPad prototype which goes to show that Apple worked a very long time on the iPad before coming up with the final product.
Apple Design Chief Ive had this to say after looking at the Pictures.
“My recollection of first seeing it is very hazy, but it was, I’m guessing, sometime between 2002 and 2004, some but it was I remember seeing this and perhaps models similar to this when we were first exploring tablet designs that ultimately became the iPad.”
