Apple Purchased iSlate.com in 2007. Apple’s New Tablet Called iSlate?

Rumors about the Apple’s forthcoming tablet device are hot that MacRumors has found evidence that Apple acquired the domain name iSlate.com presumably in preparation for the new device. MacRumors discovered via historical evidence that Apple purchased the domain name iSlate.com from Data Docket, Inc. in 2007.
The iSlate.com domain was originally registered in October 2004 by a company called Eurobox Ltd. It later changed hands to Data Docket, Inc. in 2006. In 2007, however, the domain was transferred to registrar MarkMonitor.com. MarkMonitor handles domain name registrations and trademark protections for many companies, including Apple. While iSlate sounds like a decent enough name for a tablet, companies such as Apple regularly buy domains that sound like their products simply to prevent others from buying them; therefore, the fact that they own a domain doesn’t really prove much.
The size of this ‘very soon’ tablet will be 7-inch (100% sure) Although there will be a 10incher follow-up rumored to be release on spring.
