Looks Good, But…

What’s the deal with the dock in the trackpad? Everything else looked solid, except for that (and the fact that he had photobooth open, showing his Apple shirt).
Only 19 days until we know for sure…

The trackpad in this picture has the dock on it, suggesting that is is touch sensitive in a way similar to the iPhone. That is that the dock will live on the trackpad and be controlled directly from there, almost like a second screen.
Not particularly good in my opinion – I fail to see how that would be an advancement.
Also, I’m not sure why the Apple shirt/Photo Booth thing makes this any less solid.
I do agree with you that this is not entirely likely – I don’t like the dock trackpad, and it doesn’t seem particularly Apple-esque. I do think it may have some similarities with where Apple is going with regards to design language.
