It's Coming: A True Replacement for Paper - Technology Review

"The notoriously secretive, English language-challenged, and so far entirely vaporware company NoteSlate just rumbled to life on its Twitter account, announcing that the company had finally discovered the technology required to realize its vision.

Has Apple Already Won the Tablet War?

"Apple is having a very good couple of days. It just reported Q3 earnings numbers that should make other companies envious and today it launched a passel of Apple products, a number of which are already being warmly (if not better) reviewed.

As PCMag.com's new editor-in-chief Dan Costa said to me, "Apple's doing it its own way." I'd have to agree and say that they're doing it very, very well. In fact, Apple's doing even better than people realize and is, I'd say, set to run away with one critical market segment."

Why Apple's iTouch Tablet Will Become Its Flagship Product

Digital content has been available for years but the right vehicle to consume the content has been lacking. We still cut down trees and hand deliver newspapers to people's homes.

In March, Reuters reported that Apple had ordered a substantial batch of 10 inch touchscreens from Taiwan to be delivered in Q3 of 2009.

TheStreet.com is reporting that Apple will release a subsidized Tablet through Verizon (VZ). Then, in this week's earnings call, Apple management went out of their way to trash the netbook space but they refused to deny the coming Tablet, saying they will only release products that are ‘innovative and that they are proud of'. These are all reputable sources that seem to unveil the secrecy surrounding the pending product.

Will the tablet have a substantial impact on Apple’s core business? I see this device taking its place at the high end of the iPod family; it will be a larger version of the iPod Touch. This product won’t fall quietly into place however. The iTouch Tablet launch is primed to be the most significant in the history of Apple.
