Microsoft’s Ballmer claims there isn’t a sizable market for tablets

“Last night’s keynote address by Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Steve Ballmer came and went without a mention of a Microsoft tablet. Ballmer had a line up of products that included a tablet PC from HP. He spent less than a minute showing it off,” Laura Sydell reports for NPR.

“This morning, I interviewed Ballmer and asked him about the market for tablet/slate computers,” Sydell reports. “He made the excitement sound like empty chatter. He claimed to believe that there isn’t a sizeable market for the tablet. ‘They’re interesting,’ he said. ‘But it’s not like they’re big numbers compared to the total number of smart devices in the world.’”

“As the world knows, everyone is anticipating a tablet computer from Apple later this winter. Based on the veracity of past rumors about Apple, I believe this to be true,” Sydell reports. “I asked Ballmer, ‘Why would Apple spend so much money and time on a tablet if there wasn’t a big market?’ He deftly deflected my question saying, ‘You’d have to ask Apple.’”

Apple event on september: no tablet

Everybody wants to see that apple tablet or ipad but according to sources close to company the event will be on September 9 and topic wouldn’t be on tablet but on ipod and itunes.

For the ipod we can expect new features to it, higher capacity, increase in price and of course the ipod with camera, but i think its not just the camera that apple would present, there would be more stuff with apple and cool services that they present.

And another thing will Steve Jobs be there? We just have to see and wait for things :)

That September Apple Tablet? More Like A 2010 Apple Tablet

Apple Tablet

At this point, it seems like people are just talking themselves in a circle about the rumored Apple Tablet. Everyone is so excited for it, not matter what it actually is, that they’re starting to convince themselves that it could drop as soon as next month. Rumors of that date started after an all-over-the-place report last month by the Financial Times, that seemed to suggest the tablet was both being prepared for September, and for the latter holiday season at the same time. As we said at the time, it seems unlikely that either are true.
