Apple tablet reader
I just bought a new MacBook after my old one died at nearly four years old. I'm pleased with the new machine, but that may change after tomorrow when Apple bring out this new tablet. Nobody is sure of the name yet.....i-slate,i-tablet,i-reader, whatever. The idea is that the tablet will replace paper print and that newspapers, books etc. may do a deal with Apple to produce content which can then be paid for online and downloaded to the tablet reader.
It should be very interesting to watch what happens and whether or not this device gallops to the rescue of falling newspaper and magazine sales.
