I wrote an article, before the announcement of the Apple media even on 27-Jan-10, for a local Chicago newspaper, the Aurora Beacon, on the rumors surrounding the existence of the Apple Tablet. I’ve got an updated version of that article over at iTechGear.org that everyone might find interesting. 

A mocked up version of Apple’s rumored tablet PC…

The recent TechVi web show that I did representing JAMM is there.  I love representing JAMM in these, and it really was an interesting show. The discussions before and after were, I thought, more compelling than the actual show.  However, I’m glad they didn’t air.  There was much more “what if” and rumor discussions in those conversations than in the actual show.  If those had aired, we would have done nothing more than fan the fire of the rumor mill, just creating more noise. Even today, there is much more rumor and what if being tossed around than solid, confirmable fact (though I would suppose that what we have coming out on sites like Apple Insider and MacRumors is going to be more and more accurate the closer we get to the actual event).

Check it out and then come back here and let me know what your thoughts are!
