I have no problem getting excited about an Apple Tablet. However... I can't get excited about rumours and speculation. There's nothing actionable about all this crap unless you're an iPhone developer and you decide to support full screen resolution and not make an assumption about the screen size. Other than that... I suppose this might make some folks hold off on netbooks. Are there any other tangible,a ctionable consequences of this kind of post? Or is it all the tech equivalent of guys in a barbershop arguing about whether Muhammed Ali was the greatest fighter who ever lived?
