Apple Daily has some new rumours of the BlackPad that was so mysterious. Besides giving the Apple iPad a kick in the shiny metal butt with some modern specs like front-and-rear-facing cameras, it’s going to sport 9.7-inch multitouch panel. Other standard specs would be like Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi 802.11n. Quanta is said to have won the bid to manufacture the tablet with plans to ramp up for 2 million units starting in September, with another 8 million planned for 2011. Quite ambitious there. But with the price of $499, RIM would need to have more tricks up its sleeve.
