With growing anticipation that Apple will launch a Tablet early in 2010, another guessing game has emerged alongside trying to figure out the device's specs. That game involves determining the actual name of what we've been calling the Apple Tablet since rumors first started popping up earlier this year.
A few days ago, iSlate emerged as a potential name when it was discovered that Apple owns the domain name iSlate.com. Now, another "iSomething" has joined the mix, as MacRumors has found that Apple filed a trademark application for the name "iGuide" through a company called iGuide Media LLC.
The trademark application hints of many tablet-esque features, including an all-purpose media browser and downloadable electronic content. As such, MacRumors speculates that the iGuide name could be "Apple's upcoming tablet computer or a related software or service."
Frankly, neither iGuide or iSlate rolls off the tongue quite like iPod, iPhone or iTunes, and I still wouldn't be surprised to see Apple go in a completely different direction when it comes to naming the device that most now see as a certainty. Nonetheless, it seems like "iGuide" or "iSlate" were at least considered at some point during the process.
What do you think of the potential names? Let us know in the comments.
