Hell yeah! The news is almost confirmed! Apple would be releasing its much awaited tablet (Apple iSlate?) this January 27th and most probably an announcement regarding iPhone OS 4.0 firmware might also be made available. Cut the rumors short, the confirmed news is that a special Apple event in San Francisco has been scheduled for January 27th and Apple has released a colorful press release which says – “Come see our latest creation”
As per the tradition, the event invite doesn’t mention about what that creation actually is, but according to Clayton Morris of Fox News, it is definitely about the Apple Tablet!
I spoke to a source at Apple this morning, before the invite hit my inbox, who said the event would likely focus on three projects: The tablet device, iPhone 4, and a new round of iLife 2010 software. While we won’t see new iPhone hardware just yet, we will see the next-generation software.
Adding to the excitement is the news about iPhone OS 4 SDK scheduled for release on the same day. Not just that, the buzz is, iLife 2010 will also be revealed on January 27th. Exciting isn’t it?
