[DM-MUG] Apple Tablet ?

[CW Smith]

My rule for Apple-related rumors:

	When Steve announces a product, it's legit. Until then, it's only a  
rumor.

iPhone (in some form) was rumored for almost 5 years before Apple  
actually announced it. Video enabled iPods were rumored for at least a  
couple years before they actually arrived. Other products were/have  
been rumored for years to no fruition. And Apple has sometimes  
announced products that no rumor ever anticipated (Intel Macs for  
example).

The purported prototype bezel for the latest iPhone (kicked around  
rumor sites for months earlier this year) turned out instead to be the  
bezel for a new device by Creative. When the manufacturer for iMac G4  
cases announced that Apple had discontinued orders, the web was abuzz  
with rumors Apple would discontinue the iMac. Instead, a totally  
redesigned iMac G5 was introduced a couple months later.

Never count on, make investment decisions on, or budget tech purchases  
based on Apple product rumors.

Peace,
CW
