Apple Tablet Likely Described in Patent

Hidden within the usual litany of claims in a patent awarded this January--titled "Display Housing for Computing Device", which covers their current portable displays--Apple describes a tablet display, with the display housing the computer device.


The patent describes several forms for these displays--most of them already in use in current Apple laptops--, describing displays attached to portable computers. However, one of the claims describes the display as a "housing for a computer device", which would include the computer electronics within the display housing, sandwiched between front and back shells.
