Tech Peek Base

There’s a flurry of rumors this morning that Apple is planning an event as soon as this January, though exactly what they’ll be showing us is still in question. Most of the buzz (along with our buddy Gene Munster) says we will finally see the long-awaited tablet, and that after a January showing, it might actually be released as soon as March. Which means, of course, that by August, it’ll completely revolutionize whatever industry it happens to fall into. That’s usually how these things work.

But while a tablet is still only being bounced around, we’ve at least heard that a bigger screen is involved in some way, whether that be in a netbook style computer or something else. A few developers have reportedly been asked to ready their apps for a “full screen” resolution, which would seem to suggest that even if the new device is larger than an iPhone, it’ll still run apps off the App Store.
