CNN Jumps on the "Apple's Making Something" Bandwagon
Posted by Vincent Ferrari in "Apple Talk" @ 01:00 PM
"Is the world finally ready for the mobile minitablet? It's become quite clear over the last several months that Apple is ready to bridge the mobile computing gap, with plans to develop a device that fits somewhere in between the iPhone and the MacBook."
Of course, CNN's proof amounts to the speculation of other news organization whose sources include speculation of other sources. In other words, there is no primary source for any of these stories aside from the speculation of other news agencies. It's one big echo chamber.
Now, that being said, if a new device is announced I will absolutely buy it; no questions asked, because that's how I roll. Apple says "jump" and I say "Do you take credit cards?" I just wish the news agencies would shut up already because if something like a tablet isn't announced at WWDC, the next thing will be the news agencies ripping into Apple for not fulfilling their rumors.
Why don't they do this kind of stuff with Dell?
(Rhetorical question, folks.)
