The Apple Tablet will feature a wireless chip made by Qualcomm confirming that Apple has chosen Verizon as its telco partner, says Northeast Securities analyst Ashok Kumar.
"This makes sense for Apple," says Nielsen Wireless analyst Roger Entner. "It behooves them to build a relationship with a company they haven't worked with yet," Enter said.
TheStreet.com notes that analysts estimate Verizon will subsidize about $200 of the tablet's price and require a two-year data service plan of around $60 a month. They expect the device to sell for around $800 without a subsidy.
Kumar also believes the tablet will include a docking station which could connect to a keyboard and mouse.
