Jack Bauer Getting an iSlate

Posted by Editor on Jan 26, 2010 in Apple, Tablets

A Tasty Slate blog Exclusive! This just in from the Twitter page of Rodney Charters- the director of photography on the Fox TV series, 24:

“Hmmmm looks like we may get an iSlate into Jacks hands for Ep 20 getting giddy with excitement”

“Got a bit too excited probably more likely Episode 22 but Apple provided fingers crossed”

Fans of the show know that CTU members often sport Apple MacBook Pros, Cinema Displays and iPhones courtesy of a product placement deal with Apple. And this is as close to tacit confirmation on existence and name of Apple’s tablet as we’ve heard so far. Then again perhaps this is just an evil plot by the Russians and Chloe will have to find the IP of those responsible. But one way or the other, it looks like Apple’s ‘newest creation’ may find its way into Jack’s hands before this season is out….
