Rumor: Apple contacts editors to prepare for the tablet

An interesting rumor released by Gizmodo reinforces the previous rumors for the tablet Apple: the possibility of becoming the newest information pad on the market. Apparently, Apple would have contacted the New York Times, Oberlin Press and McGraw Hill to reach an agreement, so far. Those agreements would be based on the possibility of releasing contents (information and books) through iTunes and a new hardware. Seems very much like the tablet to me.

This fact would switch the attention of developers to a new, innovative information management, perhaps with ad-hoc solutions. Then, maybe, the new tablet could become the new reading iPod.
