Apple Rumours
Noticed a couple of recent articles which add fire to the usual Apple rumour mill about the imminent release of an Apple Tablet.
These have been sparked by Yair Reiner an analyst with Oppenheimer who indicated
…the manufacturing cogs for the production of a tablet are creaking into action and should begin to hit a mass market stride in February. Reiner said Apple would likely need at least five or six weeks of inventory built up before it can release the product, positioning a likely launch in March or April.
He also said that Apple has been reaching out to book publishers with a “very attractive proposal” for offering content on a forthcoming ebook platform.
So currently, the strongest rumour is for a 10.1 inch display using similar technology used for the iPhone and aimed as a Kindle e-book basher. Maybe we should just call it an iPod Touch with a 10.1 inch display.
But if the device were also to use a hybrid touch/stylus interface, what opportunities would then become available…
