Two rumoured pictures of the Apple Tablet, via

Engadget have another set of leaked pictures, and some potential specs and prices:
www.engadget.com - They're guessing a price of around $800-$1000, and also suggesting that we'll see iLife '10 released today.

Jason Calacanis seems to have been using a tablet prototype, and has posted a series of really interesting tweets:

Here's what we seem to know so far: It comes in multiple sizes/specs, it's running a version of the iPhone OS, priced between $599 and $799, contains HDTV tuner and PVR, it has a wireless keyboard connection, multiple cameras for video conferencing, Wi-Fi enabled, connects to Verizon and AT&T, fingerprint security, solar panel charging, 2-3 hour battery life, and thoroughly impressive games. Of course, this could all be complete speculation!

A side-splitting snippet from the Onion - "Frantic Steve Jobs Stays Up All Night Designing Apple Tablet":

Looks like the US Patent Office have granted Apple a few interesting patents (how timely!). One relates to the ability to detect a finger hovering over a certain area of the screen, before you touch it:

A supposed photo of the tablet from
www.engadget.com - Hard to make out the details, but the interface certainly feels like a scaled-up iPhone.

Unfortunately Apple don't stream their events live, but they'll likely post it up on their website later today.

There's some speculation that we might see a preview (or developer release) of iPhone OS 4.0 during the event. Apple have been making changes to the developer website and T&Cs.
by macappstorm at 1/27/2010 4:19:35 PM
It's getting underway in 90 minutes, at 6pm GMT. Not long to wait now!

Another live blog certainly worth watching is the Guardian:
www.guardian.co.uk - They have a team of professional journalists at the event.

If you're killing time waiting for the keynote to start, why not take a look at the other sites in the AppStorm network? We've recently launched iPhone.AppStorm:

If Apple do release a preview of the new iPhone OS today, you can become a registered developer and download it for $99. Registration is here:
developer.apple.com - Are any of you
that impatient? :)

Looks like people are being let into the event. Still an hour to go, though, so put the kettle on!

The Guardian did some crowdsourced prediction:
www.guardian.co.uk - Interesting results, but there's no way it will support Flash.
by macappstorm at 1/27/2010 5:17:25 PM
There's also the possibility of iLife '10 being announced today. Looking forward to seeing what new features they've packed into it?
