Are you waiting on bated breath like the rest of the planet regarding the Apple Digital Reader, (a/k/a Apple iPad – maybe?) it supposedly comes out tomorrow. Whoa!

The anticipation factor on this digital reader is HUGE, not too mention the rumors are just as big. Through all the speculation, fact is no one really knows for sure, the size – price – or specs on this, the Jesus reader. But one thing everyone seems to agree on, is that the Apple digital reader will be priced steep as is their style. And it will be sleek, as is their style.

Let’s take a look at the major differences between the Apple Digital reader and the Amazon Kindle. (from what we do know)

Kindle

• Price – $259
• Size – 6 inch and 9 inch (DX model)
• Ink – eInk
• Connectivity – Wireless 3G (via AT&T)
• Storage – 2GB
• Input – Keyboard

Apple Digital Reader

• Price – $1,000 + (heavily rumored to be high priced)
• Size – 9 inch (heavily rumored to be bigger than the Kindle 2, 6 inch screen)
• Ink – LCD (computer like screen in tablet style form)
• Connectivity – Wireless 3G (heavily rumored to be either via Verizon or Sprint)
• Storage – n/a (but most likely will have good storage capacity)
• Input – Touchscreen (heavily rumored)

Yes! this is mostly speculation, but one thing we can pretty much all bet on is the MEDIA BUZZ the Apple digital reader will create, and as such get people talking about “reading” in general.

Question

What specs have you heard or read about, that will most likely make it to the Apple iPad?
