This is Apple’s traditional time for big announcements. The big Apple convention MacWorld used to be on at this time of year.

Apparently, back in 2007, Apple registered the domain iSlate.com. That, with the rumors coming from Chinese screen manufacturers seem to point to a 10 inch tablet.

It will be interesting to see if Apple can do for tablet computing, what it did for the mobile.

Personally, I don’t see a future or tablet computers. I think a touch-screen would be really difficult to type on long term. I think tablets are more suited to graphical type applications. I don’t think there will ever be a novel written on a touchscreen.

Who knows though? Apple have surprised us in the past.
