I just published this whitepaper for our affiliate mobile application development business, Codex Development. Here's a few pages of the text. For the entire whitepaper as a PDF, download it for free at http://www.codexdev.com/research.

A new week, a new Apple rumour (I'm going with the UK spelling here since I'm in London). This one is about the fabled Apple Tablet, which is basically the same rehashed rumour about the Apple netbook that surfaced earlier this year.

In this version, China Times has an article (translated here) about the upcoming plans for Apple to release such a device in October.

eWeek interviewed me yesterday to find out my opinion on if these rumours were possibly going to come true.

My opinion? This rumour smells about right. Why? Because of a convergence of a number of factors: user demand, technology, and developer energy. The point where these things converge is where Apple plays best.
