Fox News confirms “big” Apple event for January 26th, focused on “mobility space”

Fox News confirms “big” Apple event for January 26th, focused on “mobility space”Confirming last week’s Financial Times report that Apple has rented out the Yerba Buene Center for the Arts in San Francisco for a January 26th event, Clayton Morris over at Fox News is now reporting that the January event will be “big” and focus on the “mobility space.”

Quoth Morris:

I’ve spoken to a source inside Apple who confirmed a “big” event for January.

While nothing official has been handed down from the notoriously tight-lipped company, my source took the Financial Times report one step further by saying this event will focus on the mobility space, meaning we’ll see something related to the iPhone/iPod touch product line.

Since iPhone and iPod Touch announcements are usually made in June, that means this event is going to focus on something like the iPhone, but a wholly new product. *cough* Apple Tablet. *cough cough*

    Can’t believe anything you hear on fox news.

    “Can’t believe anything you hear on fox news.”

    Really? I would say the wisdom of crowds would prove you wrong, as Fox News is #1 with a bullet. Perhaps you should have said, I don’t want to believe anything I hear on Fox News. They seem to be the only place where you can hear both sides of an issue.

    Enjoy your Kool-Aid!

    Haha, I’m not going to get into my lack of appreciation for Fox News, because the argument is a senseless one here.

    The tablet would be lovely to hear about it, but it wouldn’t be so bad if Apple just-so-happened to announce that iPod touch with the camera as well :p

    Sure, it’s not quite spring yet, but eh, haven’t we been waiting long enough now? :p

    Wow, Chuck. Feeling insecure today?

    I agree Chuck.

    Keep politics out of this and comment on the story itself.

    I like the mock up in the article.

    Will a 10″ Tablet screen be juice hungry,my iPhone needs to be frequently charged with heavy use.
    Now the iMac has i5 and i7 processors, could the event be for a Mac Pro upgrade.
    Apple Tablet or not other manufactuers are designing there own Tablet computers,who will be first to release one.
