So we’re getting into Winter again, and yet again the Apple Tablet rumours emerge. Now, it’s not as if I want to naysay the idea that Apple will release one - it’s a huge potential market, and I’m sure that eventually they’ll release something like what we expect. What I do find a little on the objectionable side is the amount of press coverage this has been consistently attracting over the Winter months of the last three years. I mean, once the press release has been leaked or a mole inside the company has come up with a genuine-looking photo of the device, by all means go flapping off at the gums, but I have seen no convincing evidence of any such device existing. Contrast this with the iPhone 3GS, where strong rumours - including case designs and software specifics - came out this time last year including correct predictions of hardware combinations, down to SDD sizes.
Of course, like any other Apple fanboi, I eagerly await the Tablet, and will be one of the first in line to get hold of one of these - but until solid details emerge stop clogging the Intertubes with it!
