With the release of the 17" macbook pro, Apple released a new design for batteries, something to do with a flat battery with sensors which prevent charging issues. Makes the battery have 50% more capacity and last a LOT longer than a standard laptop battery.
Of course they patented this battery technology, and if they do produce a tablet, you know it would use it. I think Apple will eventually release one, probably with a 9" screen and it will do everything the ipod touch does. They also have patents on the various parts which go into making the macbook air as well.
Main issue will be price point, it will probably land at about $1000 USD but technically will blow every other reader out of the water and will basically be a laptop in your palm.
