Rumors of an Entertainment-Oriented Apple Tablet Persist

A new report adds to the growing evidence that Apple intends to release a tablet-shaped computer with a 10-inch Touchscreen and a focus on movies, music, and e-books. This tablet computer will have wireless access to the Internet, including iTunes. This will allow users to download music and also video to play on the relatively large display. In addition, it’s expected to function as an ebook reader.

All of the features one would expect in a mobile computer will supposedly also be included: web browser, email software, etc.

Possibly Coming to Verizon
Apple’s tablet computer will almost certainly have Wi-Fi. but previous reports have said that it may also include wireless service from Verizon.

Apple has an agreement that gives AT&T exclusive rights to all its smartphones, but this tablet isn’t expected to have phone service, just wireless Internet access.

At launch, this device would likely have EV-DO Rev A,. but future versions might sport LTE, this carrier’s upcoming 4G service.
