Although the last few months the rumor mill surrounding the tablet alleged that people from Apple is developing does not stop for a minute, the reality is that until today nobody has provided clear information about their existence.
And that was what people wanted Valleywag your competition, get the first real evidence of the existence of the Apple Table. It was so simple, if someone got a real picture of the device and sent her this win $ 10,000, if instead of a picture of a video was $ 20,000, $ 50,000 for a photo of Jobs using the Tablet and finally 100,000 let them try it on for an hour.
This among other things is to encourage industrial espionage, which as we know the apple do not like a hair, it was expected that before long the company’s lawyers called to the door of the publication. And indeed well spent. We got a letter from a law firm representing Apple in which, in summary, they demand the immediate withdrawal of the competition.
The fact is that among the many things that appear in the minds letter also are succulent and revealing words , eg: The information by which you are willing to pay, such as photos of a product has not yet filed, are trade secrets of Apple [..] Apple has maintained the kind of information and things you are requesting, how it works, its size, name, software-and any other information about appearance, features and prototypes, in strict secrecy .
And how has finished the story? For though not a direct confirmation of Valleywag say the have decided to name the winners of Apple and his own law firm to be those who have provided further evidence of the existence of the Apple Tablet, the letter gives to understand that “something” is working. Even as we are very nearly as in the beginning, so if it is symptomatic that Apple has to run as fast as its legal machinery against a publication by requesting information on what is supposed to be just a rumor . Perhaps if instead of requesting information on the tablet had been on any other device / sound of the block, were not so quick or they had not been sending anything.
