thunderstorm369 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Posted December 29, 2009 Over the past decade the iPod has revolutionized the way we listen to music, and the iPhone is the must-have gadget when it comes to mobile phones. So it seems entirely fitting that Apple should choose the start of a new decade to launch its latest product - which could entirely change the way we use computers. Rumors are rife that Steve Jobs, the company's chief executive, is planning to unveil a touch screen computer known as the 'iSlate' at the end of next month. Details about the new product are being kept top secret, but expectations are high that it will be a one-piece touch screen computer that will look like a cross between an iPhone and a laptop computer. Referred to in the industry as 'the tablet', it could signal the end for the keyboard and mouse system used by millions of PC users across the world. The 'tablet' could be used for communication purposes as well as being a single device to download music, books, and films. Apple has never acknowledged that such a device exists, but the company has booked the Yerba Buena Centre for the Arts in San Francisco to make a "major product announcement" for 26 January 2010. And while Apple has been officially extremely tight-lipped over their new invention, an 'insider' told: 'let’s just say Steve is extremely happy about the new tablet. 'Little detail is known about the device, including the predicted price which could be as much as £700. But it is expected to be similar to an iPod Touch with a larger 10-inch screen, making it convenient to watch video, search the internet and read digital books. Analysts think it will be set up to handle television and newspaper subscriptions through a wireless connection.
