No, Slite is fabricating references to Apple out of whole cloth.

Meanwhile, there is no Apple tablet, its alleged appearance grows more and more mythical by the day (now it's "late 2010!"). However, other companies are likely to crank out something, which will probably demonstrate how useless -- oh, sorry, how tiny of a niche -- tablets will be.

Erm, what is "stupid" about working with Adobe? Their products are commonly used by the publishing industry (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, PDF). Air is cross-platform, and the publishers are working with Adobe to make it work better on mobile devices.

Spend about 10 seconds with an Adobe Air app, and you'll see how Air is not "another ebook format."
