Original iPad prototype screen was around 13 inches diagonally, the body was almost an inch thick [Gallery]

Buzzfeed got its mitts (don’t ask, just look) on more of those “original iPad” pictures discovered today. These are actually compared to a modern day iPad in size. And, oh my— the original prototype iPads are big. They look equivalent to a 13-inch MacBook display or thereabouts. Moreover, they look almost an inch thick.

Is it just me…or does the idea of a (albeit thinner) 13-inch iPad suddenly sound tantalizing?
