An update about a year ago added 1080p, mine is set up that way. However, there's still no 1080p content.
What do you think Apple will announce on the 27th

The tablet is a red herring... it's actually the Newton eMate 400 running a newly revisited OpenDoc X 
meh, iSlate is actually the color of the new clamshell on this blast from the past! It's that medium gray from the old Mac OS 7.5 default desktop The eMate 400 will have cyberdog as it's default browser, after 12 years it's finally ready to go!
OK, in all seriousness... I know they are rumoring the iSlate to be (in oversimplified terms) a 10" iPod Touch... If they make a smaller one (say around 6") I'd be ready to jump on board!

The hardware is 3 yrs old which is pretty sad. OS is still based on Tiger, if I'm not mistaken. They need to do something soon.
Last evening on CNBC's "Mad Money" Cramer had an Apple tablet being used in the background on a TV monitor, kind of a sneak peak of what it will look like while he pontificated about Apple stock trading strategy this week. The person using it worked it like the screen of an iphone, just much bigger. What I saw was very impressive!
The more I'm reading about these media (book, newspaper, television, et al) content deals... I wonder if in addition to their tablet/slate/pad/whatever that is to be announced; that they don't also announce a sort of iTunes Pass, similar to Microsoft's Zune pass...
Anyone know of where you can watch this live, or better yet satellite cordinates?
I have contacted Apple PR and no one is in the office there yet.

Thanks,
I was unaware of that. The box I played with didn't have that... I guess it wasn't updated.
I always wonder why they don't allow AppleTV owners to watch these events live, think it would be a great bonus and couldn't be that hard to implement.
No live A/V feeds that I'm aware of. Many websites will be reporting live. Some with pictures.

Apple stock is dropping like a rock! Lost $4 a share in a few seconds as the demo of the ipad is underway. Folks get your savings ready to buy in at a discount!

yeah, it does look like a supersized iphone, i am a bit disappointed in the design, the proportions do not look right, the border around the screen is too thick, and that little button on the bottom looks like it is the same size as the one on the iphone, which again looks out of proportion. They should have done different things with the design.
Network 802.11N + Leak this morning was Verizon still waiting for specifics
all iphone apps will run unmodified but will use a screen magnifier and SDK will allow dev to write for full screen too. Released now.
iworks is expanded version of iphone app
