A new rumor is out for the Apple Tablet, which is no surprise since leaks can help spread the hype.
While the rumor is not all confirmed pretty much every tech news giant has their paws on it: Softpedia, Tech Crunch, and Engadget.
This pretty much confirms the device, but I ask myself.
Is the french source leaking this for Apple to generate more hype, or is it a false hope that Apple would include such a thing into the device.
As well a webcam, touchscreen, 3G, 11 inch’s, apps, $1000 who needs an iPhone?
The french source says that the webcam and 3G could help video conferencing.
Jean-Pierre Elkabbach: According to weekly Le Point, in a couple of days Apple will be launching its tablet computer …
Stéphane Richard: Yes.
Jean-Pierre Elkabbach: … equipped with a webcam.
Stéphane Richard: Yes.
Jean-Pierre Elkabbach: Are Orange customers going to be able to enjoy it?
Stéphane Richard: Of course!
Although this could also be very useful for the medical industry, architect, and the like.
The reason why I am cautious as the same rumor was aimed at the iPhone last year.
So hype, or truth?
We will find out in weeks.
EDIT: Just a hope (knew it!) Orange is pulling back from there comments, denying that this confirms a device.
