Not sure how this will workout. Not many people would want a cool thin device burning a hole in their leg. But im sure they will figure something out like always. Palm CEO should make another quote about how it will fail just for us to laugh at :D

All title, no substance.

"In what might be a high-profile case of career suicide..."

LOL

Come on you trolls, if Steve announces it a WWDC, then we want it... As a fanboy, it's not our job the decide what we want or need, Steve will tell us...

Personally, I'd pay $4000 for a nice elegant and sexy tablet. And if it is multitouch, then it would just be absolutely delicious!! I don't really care about the specs as long as it's thin. It will be a bloodbath and a game changer!! This is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!

Yea. I'm sure this was translated accurately from German to English.


MDN word Consider: "Consider the source"

How do you say, "You've been Steved." in German?

Hey MDN, put this guys name in your ical. I want to know if Steve has this guy for breakfast this morning.

I know somebody who's going to loose his job.......

"I want to know if Steve has this guy for breakfast this morning."

I don't think pescetarians eat Germans.

Hasn't this story already been debunked by Intel?

Steve's on the plane now headed to Germany with a fresh-built headstock and shackles for this guy to rot. Just don't use the drowning tactic used in Gwantanimo(sp) or you might make Hillary mad.

@Golfer

How do you loose a job? What is with the tendency to add another o to the word lose?

...I know somebody who's going to loose his job.......

"How do you loose a job?"

Some jobs were meant to be set free. Occasionally, you'll see them riding boxcars, on street corners or hanging out in youth hostels.

"Not many people would want a cool thin device burning a hole in their leg."
I already have that. It is called money. People seem to love it.

Apple has been known to kill and delay projects that are leaked just to make the leaker look bad and loose credibility.
Intel has a strict policy on leaking, announcing or commenting on partner's projects and plans prior to the partner's official word. That policy is it is strictly forbidden.

" . . . device burning a hole in their leg."

But it could be used for cauterizing wounds. Halliburton might buy thousands. But for them, the iPhone will need a 3000% markup at the very least.

"Apple has been known to kill and delay projects that are leaked just to make the leaker look bad and loose credibility."

Not credible. No company's that dumb. If this ever happened it will have been for other valid business reasons, not just to make a leaker look bad.

You' Steved gewesenes VE.

That's what Babel Fish says. Don't know if the translation is right.

Total BS.

Mis-translation.

An apology has been issued by the idioten who spread this nonsense.

Can you see an Atom chip?

This German Intel executive may be found in a bratwurst in the future.

@ Real World

Do your research before you claim something is not credible and learn your Apple history.

Here is just one small example for you to chew on.

If you want more I can fill a page.

JUNE 9TH! BABAY!!!

the atom is available now, I could see them putting it in a mac tablet, but not the iphone - maybe...

This sounds like a planted "secret" designed to out the sources of news leaks.

When is the last time Apple made a product BIGGER?
