I am not an apple fan, I don't have an iphone and probably never will.
I am sure they are going to shock the world with their new tablet, but although it might allow ebooks reading (expect locked apple content), it will not be its core purpose.
What they will have is some kind of giand iphone that will be used to browse the web, play music and video.
I would like to see what kind of screen they offer and what kind of battery life we are talking about.
Being in the market for a large reader, it would be stupid to disregard Apple... (it might encourage competition to reduce their prices though).
I can understand the iphone's success, but this device will be both large (not that portable, so in competition with netbooks or even larges sized ereaders )and expensive (it is rumoured that they will be priced close to 1000$, so still highend price).
We can at least say one thing about Apple. They know how to get a buzz !
