Could WWDC 2010 finally bring the Magic Trackpad/Magic Slate — essentially a large, flat surface with iPhone/iPad-like capacitive multitouch input — to the Mac? Whether it will support the full range of gestures that the iPhone and iPad do, or the currently more limited range supported by the Magic Mouse and new Mac Book Pro trackpads is unknown.

Rumors of the Magic Trackpad/Magic Slate date as far back as the Magic Mouse last October, and while this leak (if real) means we might actually see it soon, it would also mean Apple takes time away from their even more iPhone-centric WWDC 2010 to focus on Mac peripherals (and if they do, will new Mac Mini, Mac Pro, and MacBook Air get some attention as well).

Before anyone asks — no idea if it will pair via Bluetooth to an iPad or iPhone running iPhone OS 4. But it sure would make a nifty lower-cost next generation Apple TV controller…

A couple more pics after the break!
