MarketWatch is speculating that Apple will begin ramping production of the much rumored tablet in February, with a launch in late March or April.  The rumor is that it will have a 10.1 inch multi-touch screen, and not an OLED screen as others have suggested.  Apple has supposedly started to reach out to book publishers to distribute their books with Apple getting 30% and the publisher getting 70%, compared to Amazon’s terms of 50-50.
