Apple files a patent for enhanced smart covers to,
integrated display to have icons or information.
solar cell to power itself.
e-ink display to give notifications.
scribble area.
an most important, Integrated keyboard.
Though the patent seems to filed newly, it dates back on August 2011 (1 year ago).
Damn! now when apple actually realeases it... it will be said to copy microsoft...Poor apple....
This is patent application filed not granted!! Glad to see that microsoft will have a product on the market before apple can do anything, otherwise apple wouldnt have allowed any other company to have a basic thing as integrated keyboard.
Microsoft already has a patent on this integrated keyboard
since 2003: What's unique about Microsoft's Surface tablet Touch Cover? | News | TechRadar
And for secondary display stuff checkout Microsoft slideshow
from 2007 :
Using a Windows SideShow-compatible device
So, no need to feel sorry for poor apple, they are good at copying stuff and marketing it as a new invention.
