I suspect that the tablet will be called the "MacBook". At the moment, there's hardly even a MacBook in Apple's lineup: the 13" MacBook Pro is their best-selling Mac and the white plastic MacBook seems like an afterthought or placeholder.
Furthermore, it wouldn't surprise me at at all if the tablet MacBook is the "iLife computer" and the MacBook Pro is the "iWork computer". I think that iLife would work brilliantly in full-screen mode on a 10" tablet computer, especially if coupled with a window manager like the 10/GUI concept. How often do people type anything when doing media production with iLife anyway?
