Apple Tablet to be inexpensive; coming in 2010 Q1 with e-Reader?

The video is couple on tech-celebs doing some chit-chat.

Also could have some better news reading services instead of paper and e-paper combo’s which are premature. A few news agencies like Guardian and Financial Times are trying the online subscription model, which I think are worthless to a visual-content-aware person like me who needs to see it on a paper and then read/store/re-use and do other work when I seek it online.

A good and savvy news reader will eliminate the need to carry paper and some clunky e-reader, which is either small, like iPhone or ugly like Kindle.

During the course of episode 231 of the Internet-based show, co-host and Web entrepreneur Kevin Rose asked Hodgman, who plays the bumbling “PC” in Apple’s commercials, if he has any inside information on the tablet.

“I don’t know anything about it,” Hodgman said. “You think they’d tell me?”

Rose then turned his attention to Albrecht, and insinuated that the co-host had privately revealed supposed information on Apple’s long-rumored touchscreen device. After pestering from Rose, Albrecht eventually conceded: “I was shocked at how cheap the price point is going to be.” He declined to reveal anything further.

While Hodgman did not have any insight on the tablet or future Apple products, the author did reveal that he was given an iPod and a MacBook Pro “on the first round” of commercials he did for Apple. He used his own MacBook Air for the duration of the episode.

“I would support them any old day,” said Hodgman, a self-professed Mac fan.
