I’ve been discussing the Apple tablet and its impact for a few months now and some were probably getting tired of the speculation. Well, that is coming to an end as the tablet should be released in a few days (rumor date is January 26th)

YEEEEAHH! Really looking forward the tablet’s features! i wouldn’t say I will buy it now, because it’s a bit too expensive for the moment.

Market for tablet PCs is small, but it can be the future…

@John – How much would you pay for it? Rumors are all around. Some say 1000$ but others say it’s far below that.

That’s a really good question. If I can get a high performing laptop/pc for the same price why would I buy an apple tablet? It will depend of the “extraordinary and innovative feature or functionality”?!?! Can’t wait!

Have you heard of P88 from Shenzhen Great Long Brother Industrial Co.? It’s an iPad look-a-like… launched in October!! Ok not the same features, but I think it’s the beginning of a saga!!

@John – well, the fact is that there will be many different models yes. But there are also probably 20 different mp3 players… so the question is, will the Ipad be to E-readers what the Ipod is to mp3 players?
