Apple has been rumored for some time to have working on a new gadget, a tablet computer, for release in the spring of 2010. The tablet-style computer device, according to TechCrunch and MacRumors will be called the Apple iSlate. It’s a slate with similar touch screen form factor to the iPhone but quite larger and with the power of a netbook-style computer.  No tactile keyboard or course, that would be way too 1990′s. The price point is set at around $750 (but this is not confirmed either).  For a full exhaustive guide of the Apple iSlate you might want to check this article out.

Obviously, it sounds very intriguing and anything Apple creates draws a lot of attention but if you already have an iPhone or other smartphone & a laptop computer and/or netbook, is there room for yet another similar device?
