According to DigiTimes, they've dug up more rumours about the upcoming Apple iTablet. The rumour states that the tablet could be delayed until the second half of 2010, even though it was scheduled for the tablet to hit the market in March 2010. The reason for the delays is because Apple is planning to have a couple of different models for this tablet and one will include a 9.7-inch OLED display. This display reportedly costs $500 and is around 30% of the total price of the device, which would mean the tablet would cost around $1,500 - $1,700 USD. Now that isn't exactly cheap.

Fortunately, that's the price right now, but OLED displays are constantly dropping in price. It's estimated that the tablet will cost around $1,200 - $1,500 USD when it gets launched in the second half of 2010. It'll retail for around $2,000 though...

Oh yes, there'll be a lower-end model with a 10.6-inch LCD display. This model is expected to launch for $800 - $1,000 USD, which is something that you could see subsidized by a carrier.
