It has been about a week and now, again the pot has been stirred by digitimes.com -- They have some very exciting news! -- Here are the yummy details!
Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) will be the manufacturing partner for an upcoming tablet PC device from Apple, according to market sources. The device is expected to hit the market in the first quarter of 2010, with initial shipments from Foxconn being in the 300,000-400,000 range, the sources said.
The device will have a 10.6-inch display, and the sources speculated that perhaps Foxconn could secure panels from its subsidiary Innolux Display.
So in summary there will be a-lot of tablets manufactured and their will be alot of tablets gobbled up by Apple Fanboys. They are going to launch it in Q1 according to sources -- that means they are launching it around the time of Mac World -- maybe they will announce it at macworld!
