just speculating. but the tablet market had been tried & failed several times over. newton never took off. so i bet they were waiting to see how people responded to the iphone before taking a leap with a product that had failed in the past.
to me the next killer app is in the TV industry. Jobs was trying to get a channel a la carte product for apple TV, but the TV/cable industry monopolists are thwarting him, since overpriced cable is the golden goose of the TV biz. Somehow their monopoly must be broken so the public can choose & pay for their own channels, through web streaming.
just IMO.
