- Here Come the Cloud Computers - “So how how long before the first Google-Apple Cloud Computer appears? I would say it’s months, not years.” We have the (finally) iPhone sdk, the rumoured Apple “slim” (could that be a super size iTouch e-Reader under the iBook brand?), and the current the Nokia’s N810 Internet Tablet, plus the Nokia S60 Touch UI video.
