From the rumored specs it seems the tablet will not have a pen like most tablet PCs.

Does anybody know if the tablet will use any sort of pen input?

If not then I would be disappointed that the tablet is not aimed at artist.

iPen will be out in winter of 2011.

They will introduce a special integrated version in late 2011 with the IS designation.

the iPen IS will come with the second edition iPads.

Then again, he also said reading was dead and that iPod would never have video.

That comment was in relation to a phone. And modified iPhones/Touches are being used with capacative styluses at Apple stores. (Which may well get swapped out for tablets - we'll see).
