I'm pretty sure Apple doesn't want people to connect their product with something thick, clunky, and huge.

iPad? I can see the keynote now:

Steve: one more thing. We at apple have thought long and hard about how to reach the female demographic and we finally think we got it right! (Picture of furry pink iphone like device appears on screen) Introducing the iPad! Its a revelution in mobile computing and that week of the month. Made from 100% cherokee hair its a revelution in tampon manufacturing and is still a fully funcional computer running the all new snow leopard. Touch screen just like the iphone in your purse! We are so prowd of this thing, its like nothing we have ever made before accept the ipod nano, mini and macbook air, that we want everyone to have one. Thats why we are selling it for the low low price of $2,000!! Its the last zombi pug your going to need laidies and the best most revelutionary tampon ever created by man/and indian....

All the while the crowd looks on with dropped jaws as wispers of Steves new level of insanaty fill the crowd. At the end they all chear and blog about how shiny the apple logo is on it and how it the greatest thing known to man. Apple goes on to sell 60 million in a year, while everyone bitches about its approval prossess and speculates on the rumored apple butt plug (The iPlug) to come next year... Steve Jobs now only wheres a white robe and sandles, with a long beard and changed his name to a symble ":)"

iPad (sounds good but pretty stupid so I doubt it)
iTouch (would cause so much confusion)
Pad (Just the word "Pad") (EWWWW)
Mac Micro (sounds pretty good)


Also what about the iMac Tablet or the TouchMac, iTablet, or even maybe the Apple Tablet (look at the name of the Apple T.V. used to be iT.V.)

iPad or iProd i think.

Actually, I believe that iProd is just a Fill in in the Firmware and may possibly stand for iProduct.
