Will have to wait to watch the live rebroadcast to get a better feel for the 'wow' factor - hard to get that from a bunch of texting and photos.

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 05:58:15 +0000 http://blog.utest.com/?p=3412#comment-14777 This Apple Tablet was rumored to be announced for several years now, so the Buzz was actually started long ago. At every stage apple was to announce a new iPhone - everyone talked about a coming Tablet. I'm not sure whether McGraw-Hill executive's slip was intentional or not, however This will even make the buzz larger so it's making a good service to Apple than any good I guess. Regarding the Tablet itself I believe that this can be a possible laptops & netbooks killer & i'd love to get my hand on it once it is released at last. :) I'm sure it will support iPhone apps & such which will enable users to purchase & use apps anytime & anywhere. The possibilities of such applications to run on a Tablet platform are endless and I'm sure we'll see many companies focus in this area as many jumped on deck due to the iPhone Buzz.

Can't help but think it was intentional to help build more buzz... but if so, I don't understand why they would let anyone else steal any of Jobs' spotlight.

Says that iPhone apps will be runnable on the device. I also saw a demo on Youtube. For what that's worth :) it looked really cool. I would say inline with how Apple would do things.

Would be a shame to launch a new device that doesn't support those 100,000 apps. I suspect you’re right, Praveen. Would be a shame to launch a new device that doesn’t support those 100,000 apps.
