Is it allowable to quote at length?

Because Spymac doesn't have any way to reference an article with an URL, their top story tomorrow may be something else, and people looking at this thread ("The thread that wouldn't die") will not know what we're talking about:
From Spymac:
Apple Tablet to compete in new Home Portable market

Apple is developing a consumer-level tablet system...

The unnamed tablet system -- featuring an 8.4" backlit TFT-display and built-in Airport Extreme -- will be marketed as a 'Home Portable' ... battery life is said to be targeted for up to five hours and the unit is operated via touchscreen and displayed keyboard. A docking station, which will include an external keyboard and mouse, will be available for an additional charge.

Current prototypes are wrapped in a dull black casing and feature an Infra-Red port, though such capability is said to be for internal use and will most likely not make it to production. ...

If this is too much of a quote, perhaps one of the moderators can chop it down and/or provide an URL to the article.

If this device does not allow the user to easily play MAME arcade games on it or any other console emulation programs, it will fail.
Just imaging how cool it would be to carry around a device that would let you play any arcade video game you ever liked.

People should be excited with the rumors swirling around product intro near WWDC... :rolleyes:

Now there are two products rolling out soon according to ... there is one entering production and one in final supplier bidding.

Strange when Apple has just tossed a couple of products out the door recently with little fanfare.
