Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Cooper, who co-founded The Green Room with me (and who is almost wholly responsible for the lovely new site), created this rather wonderful visual rumour round-up of the I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-real Apple tablet device, expected to be unveiled later this month. It’s just like my iPhone round-up from last June, except with a much classier look. I agree with almost everything he’s predicted in order of likeliness here. In terms of The Green Room site, you’ll notice this is the near-final version of the redesign. We’re publishing and sharing this around now as a pseudo-soft-launch, if you will, so that we can tinker with it ahead of the final launch which is still planned for January 31st. Of course, another reason why it’s been published now is because if we waited until the final launch, the world might already have an announced tablet, thus making the round-up useless. The domain is clunky and long, so feel free to use this short link in the mean time (link to the tablet post) or just sit tight until the end of the month. Your feedback on the site is welcome - right now the best way to contact us properly is through @tgrblog on Twitter. In the next few days, we’ll set up an email account that works with our domain. —— *The one thing I would personally disagree with is his choice of “very unlikely” for “runs iPhone OS”. I would put it at a much higher chance. I’m not saying it will run a carbon clone of the iPhone OS current state, but it certainly won’t be running Mac OS X. Not that I know anything about it, nor does anyone else outside a very small team at Apple (except perhaps The Wall Street Journal).
