In January of this year, Apple Computers announced the release of an all in one touchscreen computer, the iMac Touch.
Their new touchscreen computer, the iMac Touch, will feature an advanced swiveling design which allows it to operate with OS/X in desktop mode, and switch to iOS for mutli-touch enabled features when tilted.
While the iMac Touch will not be portable, Apple is also preparing for a MacBook Tablet release with similar design features: OS/X in normal operating mode, iOS when converted to tablet mode.
Both devices make use of Apple's new "Transitioning Between Modes of Input" patent, published in 2010 under number 006210 A1.
