NOPE.

Looks like an IKEA catalog to me.

Uber-sweet demo of what’s possible with tablet and drag-n-drop shopping. I liked the larger photo screens, but overall the performance in the demo wasn’t up to snuff for Core Animation, so I’ll chime in with the naysayers. The “CoverFlow” in the demo is the primary giveaway, as it just doesn’t ease-in or ease-out *at all* … and that’s not Apple. They make it too easy to do that kind of thing, giving CoverFlow a feeling of momentum, while some of that looked very JavaScript or AIR-ish in rendering style. I suspect the whole UI was done in Flash. Just a guess. Having said ALL that … If Apple were Apple, they would continue their iPhone trend of not releasing Coverflow in the SDK, so if Ikea or a third-party were to write an app, it might well look like that on the final tablet, at least before release and optimization. I’m speaking here, btw, as an iPhone app developer who’s dabbled in Core Animation and taken a 3D tech talk or two.

The Next Web discovered a video which could potentially turn out to be the actual Apple Tablet. Looking at the video, one thing is for sure, if this is the one, it surely looks pretty cool.

What is more interesting is that, the so called Apple tablet used in the video has a very familiar UI that you will see in the iPhone, and uses accelerometer to navigate through paged content. However, this video might turn out to be fake, so don’t get your hopes very high.

Watch the video after the jump.

Not important if it’s real or fake. I think it clearly shows there value in a tablet, and that these things will be very successful when released.
