In Rumor, Apple Tablet Now $900 in 2010, With OLED
Aug 14, 2009 - By Jared Newman
Oh, to be an analyst, whispering to investors that the rumored Apple tablet will cost $900 and will be released next year, with an 8-inch to 10-inch OLED screen to boot. That’s the word from Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities Research, who has determined — through sheer magic, no doubt — that previous rumors of a $500 to $700 tablet due in the fall were wrong. Chowdhry’s version will have an ARM Holdings dual-core Core9x chipset, and should arrive in the first quarter of 2010. As Wired points out, Chrowdhry once expected Costco to sell a $150 iPhone, so his record’s not flawless. This conflicting information can only point to one thing: A fight to the death among rumor mongers, held in secrecy. [Barron's via Wired]
