Re:Fail, nothing like an iPad
That device (and I notice you had to look VERY hard pre-iPad to find something even sort of close) doesn't even have SYMMETRIC borders! They vary from 1-2".
Well to be fair this was before the iPad. Sure it doesn't have symmetric borders, but then the samsung tablet doesn't have a 4:3 aspect ratio. The iPad doesn't have LEDs on the front like the crunchpad concept but then unlike the iPad the Galaxy Tab has branding on the front and doesn't have any physical buttons on the front.
I find these cases to be absurd, particularly when people are arguing that things like symmetric borders matter but aspect ratio doesn't matter, and rounded corners matter but lack of a distinctive physical button doesn't matter, that the front matters but the back doesn't matter, and that branding doesn't matter. -
Re:Why would it be radically different?
Yes, it does actually.
Oh yeah except for the 'SAMSUNG' emblazoned on the front, the different aspect ratio, the lack of a physical button on the front. It's about as similar to the iPad as the iPad is to the CrunchPad concept that preceded it.

Re:Sorry, but that's a fake...
[sarcasm]Oh NOES! Someone on the interwebs claims its a fake! We better believe them! [/sarcasm]
McDonnell Douglas worked with NASA on the concept of a passenger aircraft based on a BWB design. McDonnell Douglas later merged with Boeing, thus Boeing is now the company behind the concept.
Also, the photo is real... it is a smallish scale model of the planned design.
