When is the Apple tablet announcement?
Four times this morning we've been asked if we know when Apple is scheduled to kick off its "latest creation" media event.

08:00AM - Hawaii
10:00AM - Pacific
11:00AM - Mountain
12:00PM - Central
01:00PM - Eastern
06:00PM - London
07:00PM - Paris
09:00PM - Moscow
03:00AM - Tokyo (January 28th)
