With tablet and smartphone devices offering so much to consumers in this digital era, it will only be a matter of time before our treasured devices begin making toast, pouring drinks, and developing minds of their own.
None of those ideas are in the pipeline, but "iPad 3" preview will leave you wondering just how it was done.
Featuring a Helium app which allows the device to defy gravity and float like a balloon, Pierro advises "iPad 3" users to keep the dock cable connected – in order to prevent it from flying away.
The only realistic feature of the preview is Siri implementation, which could finally sever the iPhone 4S apron strings and land on the iPad. Some have debated as to the usefulness of Siri on the iPad, mainly due to its size. Whether Siri is ready to become a mainstay or not, it’s about time Apple ditched the not-so-covert marketing ploy, and made Siri available to other devices – or at the very least, those dual-core or better.
Nonetheless, the video finishes on a high, with Siri seeming to change the weather from rainy to a sunny day. A tap is then attached to the screen, and the "iPad 3" showing visual depletion of the Amber Nectar on the display. A faceless Siri then appears in the flesh, much to delight of Pierro.
