Digitimes has information from Apple suppliers Foxconn, Quanta, and Pegatron that the long-rumored Apple Tablet is a reality, and will come in two versions:
- 10.6 inch TFT LCD
- 9.7 inch OLED Panel
Of course, it won’t be cheap.
Since 9.7-inch OLED panels are currently priced at about US$500 and panel costs normally account for about 30% of the device's total cost, Apple's 9.7-inch OLED tablet PC is expected to have a cost of about US$1,500-1,700 (based on today's prices), the sources estimated.
With price drops related to volume, it could come down to a retail of $2000 which could be driven down even lower if combined with 3G Telecom subsidies.
via Apple tablet PC reportedly delayed until 2H10, with OLED model now included.
