| New iPhone OS 3.0 to support tablet size device »blogs.computerworld.com/apple_ip···a_tablet
I've got a pretty good idea that Apple is going to be releasing more iPod touch/iPhone platform devices. Why? Well, for one, they've said so in a job posting at the end of last year.
So, that "growing number of embedded devices" I think will be a ten inch tablet. The ten inches figure I get from the three different reports out of China that Apple is developing a touch screen in the 9.5-10 inch area for release in Q3 (summer). Paying $20 for an iPhone app seems silly to me with so many great $5-$10 apps all around. But if an Apple tablet can handle hi res 3D gaming, it might make more sense.
And with Amazon.com's Kindle app running on the iPhone, a color tablet size device could be a big competitor to Amazon's Kindle - the right size, but also more versatile than the Kindle.
