Wondering what Techcrunch will do now if that confirmation is true. Do you think there will still be a market if the early adopters might buy an Apple tablet?
Just as with the iPhone, Apple's going to be selling the concept as heavily as the product itself. If the CrunchPad materializes, it stands to pick up quite a bit of business that is convinced by Apple's larger argument, but put off by the price or some Apple-ish limitation/restriction.
(could be as simple as: Apple's tablet not supporting Flash either.)
