A source at Apple Insider claims that the rumored Apple Tablet is coming in 2010, and at a price that is within reason. The source claims that the Apple tablet will be in the price range of somewhere betweet the cost of the high-end iPhone ($299) and Apple’s least expensive MacBook ($999). So we’re guessing the Apple tablet to be between $599 and $699, depending on its features that’s not a bad price at all. The source also went on to say that it will indeed be 3G enabled and should be around 10-inches or so and shaped like large iPod touch or iPhone.

Cult of Mac managed to get their hands on a very large number of iPod touch and iPod nano case images. These images were posted to their website late Wednesday night. Supposedly the manufacturers of these cases don’t actually have confirmation from Apple of the dimensions of these upcoming iPods but are so certain that they have moved along with production anyway. Cult of Mac says that they learned of the dimensions back in May (which is right around the time iLounge posted the iPod nano dimensions ) and have done their own investigating to double check that they were correct.
