It Smashes Windows

So apparently there is some big Apple event on Oct. 14, and as these semi secret/surprise Apple events tend to do, it has gotten the Mac geeks all atremble and aquiver. The speculation mill is in full churn mode and clearly the most fun one going is that Jobs & Co. will maybe, possibly, potentially, perhaps unveil the world’s first all-screen laptop.

The long-rumored "Brick" project, says Cult of Mac, "would be a hybrid laptop/tablet/ebook that dispenses with a physical keyboard and trackpad in favor of a virtual, adaptive UI that blends multitouch, gestures and its own orientation to switch between different modes." Basically, imagine a laptop-sized iPhone, that does everything your laptop can do.

Of course (not to go all Occam's razor on the cult of Mac or anything),  Apple could also just be unveiling a new model MacBook Air. Not that we want anything like "reason" to get in the way of your breathless blogfrenzy.
