The Macalope loves Apple rumors. Really. There's something wild and liberating about them. They're where dreams hit the open highway of the imagination. And run into other dreams headed the opposite direction and go careening over the guard rail of reality and into the ravine of, uh, truth, or something.

Our sources are saying that not only will there be a newly designed iPhone coming in the fall, but there is going to be a new entry into the iPad family as well. As hard as it might be to believe, the new tablet is said to sport a double resolution screen (2048 x 1536), and will be dubbed the "iPad HD." The idea behind the product is apparently that it will be a "pro" device aimed at a higher end market -- folks who work in video and photo production possibly -- and will be introduced alongside something like an iPad version of Final Cut or Aperture.

Well... the Macalope's not saying the device isn't going to be released because he really has no idea, but the idea of marketing it to the high-end video market, , seems a tad far-fetched.
