Revisiting my predictions from December 2008, here’s what I think we’ll see tomorrow. Guesses, instead of insider intel.

1440 x 960 10″ multi-touch display – Even multiples of iPhone OS resolution for easy app scaling up
ARM Cortex A9 CPU – Fast with long battery life
PowerVR SGX 545 GPU – OpenCL, baby!
iPhone OS 4.0 – With tablet frameworks and multitasking
$599 / $699 – Quoting Steve Jobs, “We don’t know how to make a sub-$500 computer that’s not a piece of junk”.
Names: iBook, Canvas… or iDroid XP 2010 Tablet Edition
