End User: Bites from the Apple: Ghost of the Machine

More Apple speculation – this time via Amazon Daily, to which I am getting addicted with my Kindle; see the full post for more links and the context for the magazine covers below

And as we get closer to the January 27 Apple event (that hasn't been fully confirmed yet by Apple, though Andy Ihnatko has already booked his flight to SF), the rumors are flying faster. Today, Reuters (via MacRumors) is reporting that a manufacturer has been selected for the iSlab's aluminum case and that the device should be in the second quarter of 2010 (which jibes with Dalrymple's forecast of an April). And it's looking likely that Apple will be shunning Intel for processing power and turning to chip made by another Apple acquisition, P A Semi. And Cult of Mac has an unnamed tipster reporting the iSlab's UI is going to require a bit of a learning curve.
