Apple's done the iPod, the iPhone, the notebook, the desktop, and content distribution, and is working on the Cloud.
Now it's time to redefine the way we use "computers." That's what's next. The notebook will, in time, give way to the Tablet, and Apple wants to make sure it's done on their own terms a la iPhone.
It couldn't be more clear.
I couldn't agree more. Computers are so last decade. We'll just have end devices to access services.
If I get banned for this or sued, I'm only linking to another site and have nothing to do with the origin of these images. ... I personally don't believe the specs are true, but it's good discussion talk.
This is pretty obviously fake unless every rumour we've heard about the tablet is untrue. Intel chips? WiFI *draft* N?
Who are these "officials" who've been officially notified of the actual product? How is it that we're now confirming rumors by referring to other rumors? Shouldn't the confirmation of the event be the actual invite sent out to the pundits?

It's official until it's not! This is the beginning of a new decade, wallow in the rumors!
Can someone please tell me when it was APPLE announced this media event? I mean surely Apple won't leave it until two weeks before the event to announce it surely?
I think it's just rumours invented by PC manufacturers who think they will release their tablets before Apple in order to get a one up on Apple when in fact Apple hasn't even got something in the works at all.
there will never be a mechanical hard drive in this thing...thats ridiculous
nor a projector.... I do not forsee apple jumping on the bandwagon and installing one of these new pico laser projectors... They will either not do it at all, or come up with some crazy invention like a hologram generator or something to leapfrog whatever is out there..

PC manufacturers released a rumor that Apple would release a product when Apple doesn't even have one?

Introducing the iBrick.
Because if it was sized to a 7" screen it would have to be 3" thick to cram all that stuff into it, resulting in something roughly the size and weight of a brick.

The ethernet is a dead giveaway that it's a fake. It would be useless and make the tablet too thick, I mean my MBA doesn't even have one. Also the screen is going to be 10".
The family room is also on it's way out, just like the centrally located TV.
I don?t see signs of that. Sure, TVs are cheap enough that people have many in their home but sitting around the largest of them in a group instead of being alone in your room is still popular.
Even if you are correct you should read the term ?family room? as a colloquial term to reference TVs in the home, not specifically a particular room. TVs will continue to get more connected to your home network and internet. I think we?ll see a lot of this at CES this year.

i guess someone's parents didn't give them enough attention that they post this crap which doesn't even sound true
or trying to drive hit traffic to their site
Hi,
I don't care about the special event
What I want, it's just the iMac 27" I ordered Dec. 10th delivered
What the the interest for a product if it isn't available
I hope AppleInsider could help us
- When iMac 27" will be available
Best regards,They're very popular right now. Probably the best iMac evvarrrr!
You gotta admit that "Clouded Leopard" would be a great name for OS X 10.7.
That was cool, thanks, didn't even know such a animal existed.
Clouded Leopard > cloud computing.
sounds good and a good name if true.

Especially if they have their data center built and really are focusing a lot more on the cloud. I didn?t think that was a real animal.

Should be some way to tell which apps were pulled. Aren't there sites that keep complete lists of all of the current apps?
That was obviously a joke.
Someone (a developer likely) leaked info that would most definitely part of an NDA.
You'd think whomever mocked this up would have used the same typeface for "Clouded"
or recognized that "upto" is two words, or that "2x to wake up and shut down" is so ugly no one paid to write anything would come up with it.

What's wrong with the word precision?

In terms of 'what's next,' I think there's something in-between that Apple has its sights on: the 'family room'.
@TV and its (hopefully, future) mutants have quite some opportunity yet.
The family room is also on it's way out, just like the centrally located TV.
