More About The Apple New Creation, The One To Be Revealed On January 27th, 2010.

More misinformation from the imaginary source who claimed to be an Apple Executive who is definitely not Phil Schiller. The new device that is the new Apple Creation would:

  • have rounded corners.
  • have a default portrait profile, based on the orientation and placement of the Apple logo.
  • have an Apple logo at the back of the device roughly half the size of the one on MacBook Pro.
  • have no iSight or any front facing camera, because it is not practical.

Remember to take what you read with a boulder of salt, because Apple has allegedly leaked fake information in the past.

Other fake info about this Apple New Creation:

  • roughly one-half inch thick.
  • has some interface ports (USB?).
  • has SD Card slot.

Well, that’s all for now. Remember to tune in to the Live Coverage of “Come see our latest creation.” special event on January 27th, 2010. As usual, you can find links to the live coverage (in)conveniently linked here.

Take that Apple-rumor-sites!

The New Creation That Apple Will Reveal on January 27th, 2010 Is…….

Don’t call it “iSlate” because that name is so un-Apple and was used by Apple’s own for misinformation. Apparently other companies are taking the bait by renaming their tablet PC as Slate.

According to an imaginary source who claimed to be a high ranking Apple Executive that is definitely not Tim Cook, this new Apple “creation” would have the following:

  • 6.75-inch x 8.72-inch dimension, thickness was not disclosed.
  • 6.375-inch x 8.345-inch screen size.

So far, that was all the info given by this all-made-up-mysterious-Apple-Executive who is definitely not Phil Schiller. Remember that the nimber given was not an accurate measurement of the device itself due to some rounding errors.

Anyway, Check back for some fake information about the fable Apple device that could be some kind of tablet-like computer.

Remember that Apple will be holding the “Come see our latest creation.” event on January 27th, 2010 at Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco.

Statement from Megadeth camp:

American Carnage Tour Postponed
AMERICAN CARNAGE TOUR FEATURING MEGADETH, SLAYER AND TESTAMENT POSTPONED
MEGADETH TO ANNOUNCE HEADLINE TOUR FOR MARCH AND APRIL

The much anticipated American Carnage Tour, featuring hard rock behemoths Megadeth, Slayer and Testament has been postponed as Slayer’s bassist/vocalist Tom Araya is in need of back surgery.

While disappointed by the tour’s delay, Megadeth are concerned for Araya and wish him a speedy recovery.

Megadeth are currently scheduling a U.S. headline run for March and April, and are rescheduling the American Carnage tour for Summer ’10. Anyone who has purchased an American Carnage ticket can hold onto it until the new dates are announced. Please visit www.megadeth.com for the latest updates.

As of this posting, no words from Slayer.net yet.

We wish Tom Araya a successful surgery and speedy recovery. SLAYER!!!!!!!
