There's been plenty of talk surrounding an upcoming Apple tablet or touchscreen netbook, and while many of the rumors have this multimedia device arriving around the same time as the new iPhone (i.e., later this summer), Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster says not so fast.
"We expect the development of such an OS to be underway currently, but its complexity, along with our conversations with a key company in the mobile space, leads us to believe it will not launch until CY10," Munster said in a recent statement.
Such a device, according to Munster, would run a version of OS X optimized for touchscreens.

These predications usually make me giggle - I think "analysts" have been predicting an Apple tablet for...oh..how long has it been since the Newton?
And even as it's apparent that Apple has no plans for a tablet, people keep kicking this prediction down the road.
