Rumors Point to Tablet Soon

With the end of the year here and not much news coming from Apple or third-party product makers, the rumor mill is filling the news void. The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times are reporting rumors that the Apple tablet device is almost here, with perhaps a January announcement from Apple and availability a month or two later.
Other rumors point to a smaller-than-expected device with a 7-inch screen instead of a 10-inch one. This would certainly indicate a gadget more like the iPod Touch than a touch-screen Mac. We’ll keep tracking the rumors at the Apple rumors page at MacMost.com.
Other rumors talk about Apple offering a subscription music and/or video service that would include some television networks. The idea would be that you could subscribe to the service and get television programs as an alternative to cable or satellite TV. Reports are that Disney and CBS will offer programming over the service, while NBC, ABC and Fox may wait and see.
There is also an update this week in the 27-inch iMac screen situation. Apple has released an update that may fix some screen issues for some new iMac owners.
