That has to be a Joke... with Apple's superior cool design history, it'd never get past S Jobs !
That thing looks like a BRICK !
I did read somewhere it has 2 cameras lenses (front & back) for video conferencing and there'll be 3 flavors starting at $599, $699, and $799. I hope that's true- esp the pricing !!
I don't think that's how it will eventually look. I think that device is either bolted down to the desk (like the article on my link says) or has a case bolted on to disguise it.
