Apple Tablet Arriving In March 2010?

This latest projection by an analyst with Oppenheimer, suggests that the Apple tablet will go in production in February and launched in March 2010.
Other suggestions are:
- Apple has settled on a 10.1-inch multi-touch display using the iPhone’s LTPS LCD technology, not the considerably more expensive OLED technology suggested in earlier reports.
- Apple has been approaching U.S. book publishers with what Reiner describes as “a very attractive proposal” for distributing their content: an App Store-type 30/70 split (30% for Apple) with no exclusivity requirement. [See UPDATE below.]
- According to Reiner, publishers are disgruntled by Amazon’s terms, which force exclusivity, disallow advertising and demand a “wolfish cut” of revenue. The typical Kindle/publisher split, he says, is 50/50, rising to 30/70 if Amazon gets exclusivity.
- Apple’s tablet would make ebooks more attractive for the education market by simplifying functions such as scribbling marginalia.
