Do you want to start a revolution? Well, I am not talking about overthrowing your government or anything similar,
but about a technological revolution. If you have something in mind, you'd better do it incredibly quickly, or you'll miss the Macworld Expo! Of course that a lot of companies are prepared for this big event, and since Apple says it's going to be a Macworld to remember, we have to believe them and wait just a little longer until the 9th day of the year...

Axiotron, a well known hardware solutions manufacturer, and Other World Computing announced that they will be present at Macworld to reveal "the first ever" Mac tablet solution to the world. At this time, all I can tell you is that you have to be present at booth #S2218 to check out the ModBook, because this device is still surrounded by mystery, at least on the looks side, but if you want to hear about features...

...I can't say "no", so here you go - what about being able to write and draw directly on screen, have true pen & handwriting recognition, a built-in iSight Camera, integrated CD/DVD combo drive, all packed inside the only Mac solution with an optional built-in Global Positioning System? Of course that plastic wouldn't be well suited for such an amazing device, so aircraft grade magnesium alloy is used to ensure safe use on all terrain!

Designed in California by Axiotron's team of German and American engineers, the ModBook features Wacom hardware for true pen input and is 100% compatible with Apple's inkwell, a Mac OS X Tiger feature that enables all applications to handle handwriting and gesture recognition. Needless to say it, just do your best to be at Macworld and get your hands on ModBook for a hands-on trial!
