The secret behind the iPad/iPhone Development

At first, steve jobs thought of making a tablet (today called iPad). Some designers made a prototype, and showed jobs it. Then Jobs thought "Hey...we can make a phone out of this!" So he put the tablet project on the shelf, then made the iPhone. After learning so much through the iPhone/iPod Touch, they took the tablet project off the shelf, and decided to work on it again. Then, we have the iPad.

Source? Steve Jobs said it HIMSELF at All Things Digital Conference 8 (D8).

Yeah, I wonder why he decided to do that.

Question for the community:

Why do you think he paused the tablet and made the phone then?
Why did he pick AT&T?!

1. I don't know, and don't care.
2. I have nothing against AT&T as they are our only internet service available besides dial-up, but apparently you guys do.


I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos
