Apple Tablet coming in September?

You can check the Periodic Table of Nerdery yourself to find all the nerds with the Mac Fanboy badge. There’s a few.

So you can imagine that the news coming out of the Financial Times this morning has a few of us buzzing. They’re reporting that Apple is in talks with record companies to add sleeves, liner notes, and other interactive goodies to digital music downloads.

Why? Because, again, according to the Financial Times:

“The new touch-sensitive device Apple is working on will have a screen that may be up to 10 inches diagonally.

It will connect to the internet like the iPod Touch – probably without phone capability but with access to Apple’s online stores.”

Even more interesting is that Apple is talks with book publishers too which is probably making Kindle owners a little scared.

Gizmodo has a nice mockup of what an Apple Tablet might look like.
