Apple iSlate To Release In March

Rumored to be priced between $800 and $1,000 with a screen between 10 and 11 inches, capacitive and multitouch, like the iPhone and iPod Touch devices, but larger. Also, it is considered that the resolution of the screen will not be less than 1.280 x720px and have a built-in projector. There is a fleeting rumor that it will run on the new iPhone OS 4.0, expected to be implemented in the June 28th iPhone 4 announcement (above). We should see a new beta release of iPhone OS4.0 and an updates Software Development Kit (SDK) this January 27th at the special announcement event Apple has planned at Moscone Center. The tablet is expected to come with a virtual keyboard, along with support for audio & video, e-books and videoconferencing and be equipped with a 3D graphics card. The tablet will be aimed at consumers who want a way to browse the web (with HTML5 savvy), play iTunes content (and particularly that new iTunes LP and Extras stuff) and view rich multimedia magazines and newspaper content along electronic editions of traditional books.

"The tablet will be supported by multiple [mobile] carriers," said Brian Marshall of Broadpoint AmTech, citing unnamed sources he said were close to the situation. "Verizon and others," he continued. "Definitely Verizon. I've been told that's a certainty."
