Seems a bit fishy to me!

One of the notable things is the serial number, which says it was built in Shanghai, in June...

Thoughts?

Field Note #1 @Taisto 2009-08-13

To be honest, i'm not really convinced that Apple would even make a tablet. What for - if their moblie platform is iPhone - and they have a range of 13" laptops.

Anyway - looks like a fake. And i hope it is... it looks like someone copied iPhone screens and put it into some kind of desktop ? i dont really like it - and i dont think apple would do something like this.
