It seems the Apple Tablet rumors are circulating again, this time with CNN Money joining the mix. In a recent article CNN speculates that the Apple Tablet is going to appear within the next few months and is said to be a magazine sized touch screen device with a screen size between 10" to 12" using a high-end graphics card that will enable stunning resolution and is a cross between the Apple iPhone and a OS X computer.
In addition to the rumored specifications there is also speculation that the Apple Tablet may include a webcam, allowing business users to hold video-conferences on the go. It is also said the device will come in several different models that offer varieties of Internet connections, such as Wi-Fi or 3G, perhaps through a contract with AT&T or another major signal carrier.
The rumors go on to speculate that the device will debut with a price point between $600.00 USD and $1,000.00 USD, but since Apple isn't talking about a tablet device then one can only guess what such a device would be priced at.
Some industry analysts are predicting that if Apple does in fact release a tablet computer that it could be the one device that outshines all other handheld devices by allowing users to watch movies, read eBooks, surf the web and listen to music on a portable device larger than the iPod, but smaller than a laptop.
Analysts suggest an Apple Tablet could revolutionize the tablet market in the same way the iPhone changed the Smartphone market. An official announcement could come as early as February 9 – 13 at the 2010 MacWorld conference in San Francisco.
