Apple reportedly 'noodling with' 7.85-inch iPad prototype
John Gruber of Daring Fireball claims he knows that Apple has a test 7.85-inch iPad with a resolution of 1,024 by 768 in its lab. Though it's not clear if the device will ever see the light of day.
"I've heard from numerous people that that's one of the ideas that they're noodling with," he said.
The height of such a device would be the same as the width of the current iPad. After testing the approximate size using a screenshot rotated into landscape mode, Gruber believes it would be "usable."
