Thanks, Steve.
Posting designs like this one makes me paranoid, because I can’t shake the feeling that it’s not original. I enjoyed the process regardless, but please let me know if somebody else beat me to the idea!

There are hundreds of printers available to today’s Mac users at no cost to Apple, and no money to be made by competing with them. Unless Apple has a game-changing printing technology hidden in its labs somewhere—and there’s no indication that it does—then printing is a game Apple can’t beat. The only winning move is not to play.
There’s also the popular notion that Apple has to do something entirely new or totally amazing in order for the tablet to succeed. After all, tablets have been tried before, with dismal results. It seems absurd to some people that Apple can succeed simply by using existing technologies and software techniques in the right combination. And yet that’s exactly what Apple has done with all of its most recent hit products—and what I predict Apple will do with the tablet.
