The Apple Tablet, expected to arrive on the 26th (although no one knows for sure), is the “iPhone on steroids” according to sources over at Boy Genius Report.
Their sources claim:
• The tablet’s multi-touch gestures are “out of control.”
• It’s powered by an incredibly fast ARM CPU
• It runs on the iPhone kernel.
• The internal model number is K48AP.
• There hasn’t been an updated iPhone OS build because there’s too much tablet-related code/references in the OS and Apple obviously didn’t want that to leak. Oops.
• The tablet is basically an “iPhone on steroids.”
Let’s hope iPhone on steroids means slicker, faster and more powerful, rather than chunkier, heavier and frequently requiring a recharge.
Again, regardless of how normally reliable Boy Genius Report reports are, take this with a pinch of salt. If you’re interested in an illustrated review of the rumors to date have a click of the image to the right.

Thanks, can’t wait to see it in the flash and see just how many rumours turned out to be foilers.

It’s compatible, I promise. :-)
If there’s an issue, I’m sorry if we haven’t been responsive. I hope it was just a mistake. Email me at daniel@disqus.com. Thanks Zee.
Oooh, I’m sold already. Don’t care much about the specs just take my credit card number and deliver it to me the 27th.
Hey Zee — actually we are compatible with WP MU and can help. I’ll follow up via email, but feel free to ping me too, ro at disqus …. Tks
I think this could definitely be a hit, but the basic iphone interface of pages and pages of apps must be changed. It's fine for the phone, but for something more sophisticated, they at least need folders, or some other method of organization.
