The product reportedly will come with a 10- to 11-inch screen and cost about $1,000 -- about the same price point
as a low-end MacBook. But the price could include a subscription to a nationwide Wi-Fi wireless service, says one analyst, who does not believe that existing 3G cellular networks could support the
data demands of the device.
The product will reportedly be available in March. Other manufacturers, meanwhile, are working on their own versions of the tablet. Dell, for example, has an Internet-ready device in development that is slightly larger than Apple's current iPhone, sources say.
