iLike: Apple’s gizmo is a multi-touch of class

THERE is a scene in an old Hollywood movie where Charlton Heston, playing the part of Moses, holds up a stone tablet on which is inscribed the rules that the faithful must obey.

The 1956 movie – and the rules – are called The Ten Commandments. Moses is holding a flat tablet of stone with letters embossed on its face.

It looks remarkably like an iPad.
