More on Apple’s Touchscreen Netbook, This Time by Dow Jones!

Picture not real

Yesterday, we received reports of Apple ordering netbook-scaled touch panels from Wintek, a Taiwanese firm. Now, Dow Jones claims to have some clearer information on this netbook!

They claim to have confirmed information from two independent sources, closely related to the matter. The information that Dow Jones has is basic enough that nearly anyone could make up the sizes and claim it as fact . . . and have good odds of being right.

It means that Apple might be planning to release a 10-inch notebook (this will be striked) netbook with touch screen. Maybe, it will be a tablet PC style netbook but, we can never predict what’s going on in their minds.

looks cool but I doubt it would be affordable

**huntor** · 03-10-2009, 04:12 PM

the size? that's it?
that's your wonderful news from some amazing source?
anyone could've guessed the size to be around 8 to 10 inches.

in fact, im pretty sure the first time i heard about the tablet was in a thread here.
someone said the saw an apple product around 10 inches surfing the net at some public hotspot a while back.
i'd search for the link but im far too lazy.

so next time you have "more" on the tablet. make sure it something we dont already know.

**NeoNightmareX** · 03-10-2009, 04:35 PM

Do you think it's real omgzorz?!?!11!?!?

But in all seriousness, I'm excited for this to come out. I don't know why I'm so in love with touch screens.
