Is the tablet really more imporatnt the the State of the Union

Apple is supposedly announcing a new device tomorrow, the fabled tablet. The blogosphere and the internet as a whole are going nuts about this. So much so that it is now the #1 trending search topic online. More people are interested in this than in what Obama has to say about health care, the wars, Haiti and all the rest.

I think it actually makes sense. After all, we all know exactly what Obama is going to say: "Ladies and Gentlemen, the State of the Union is Strong." However, very few people know what exactly is this tablet - is it just a giant iPod touch or is it the device that'll kill all traditional media outlets. Perhaps more importantly, we pretty much know how much the healthcare reform bill is going to cost us. The price of the tablet is still unknown.
