Reuters is jumping into the 10-inch-screened laptop device bandwagon with today's story.  Not much new here except that it is a new kind of display (OLED?) that would be cool/expensive) and that it is being made by the same company that makes iPod and iPhone screens:

Apple will take third-quarter delivery of newly developed 10-inch touchscreens from Taiwan, a source said on Wednesday, amid talk the U.S. firm is developing a touchscreen PC. Taiwan touchscreen specialist Wintek already makes small screens for Apple iPhones, and has received orders for the larger ones that are roughly the same size as those used in mini PCs, said the source close to the Taiwan firm. He asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to talk to the media.

We are actually starting to believe it. But will it be 720P?

Oh, and that isn't the screen, just some Internet art.

Me too. Went with the Dell Mini 9 hackintoshed to run Leopard.

But, I do sleep better at night knowing that when the Apple Netbook comes out it will cost a little bit more than the $275 I paid for my Mini 9. That being said, I'm sure I'll be green with envy and trek over to the Apple Store (credit card in hand) once it comes out!

I've already gone through two other OSX hacked netbooks already. That could have been Apple's money instead.

Also daddy needs a 3rd gen iPhone with a good bump in specs. 32GB, 5+MP cam, flash, video, turn by turn WITH voice/prompts GPS, etc.

Honestly! Show you clowns any picture that remotely looks like a computer part and mention the name 'Apple', and you go into a frenzy of, "ZOMG! I can't w8 4 it! It's so KWL!".

The item pictured is an LCD screen for a 10" laptop computer. It is 1024 x 768. It is glossy. It is NOT A TOUCH SCREEN. Here's the link:

I'm afraid that it won't be a 10 inch touch screen, because WinTek said not to make 10" touch screens, at least not when we recently asked them to produce these for our company!
