Really? So apple intended to ship non-flat tablets? What is the rational for intentionally making only some of these non-flat? What advantage or innovation does the non-flatness of a certain percentage of ipad's allow? I mean it totally seams plausible that they simply neglected to mention how non-flat tablets are the next big innovation when they were announced.
Or, perhaps this is just damage control because it is fucking embarrassing on a "premium" device.
You’re confusing “designed” with “expected outcome”. Obviously Apple didn’t design the iPad to be pre-bent, and presumably they’re not thrilled about this. But that doesn’t mean this isn’t an expected outcome of the manufacturing process. It’s not a desired outcome, but it’s one that I guess Apple decided was acceptable in order to meet the other goals they had for the process.
