Securing a deal with Apple is the kind of thing any company executive would want to brag, but we’re still a little dubious about apparent VP Orange France Stéphane Richard confirm in the air iSlate Apple tablet. Interviewed on French radio station Europe 1, Richard was asked about persistent rumors that Apple will announce a webcam-enabled Tablet within a few days, something he says yes, then – on an interpretation — goes to confirm that Orange customers will benefit from this device.
Now, SlashGear is the variety of French is rudimentary, and the exchange above comes courtesy of Google Translate. We are cautious about accepting this at face value by a number of reasons, not least to be expected that a company executive media smarter when it comes to premature blade freight Apple always secret.
There is also some room for interpretation in their responses. The interviewer form phrases Elkabbach his initial question, Richard “Yes” could be an agreement that yes, Apple tablet is on its way, or simply that yes, the newspaper Le Point hinted that fact. What little we know about France – Yes, we can recognize “her webcam”! – Confirm that when asked about the benefit to customers of Orange, Richard talks about how they can use webcams for video calls, instead of how they could benefit from a tablet.
Confirmation of an Apple iSlate directed to Orange France? We are not sure that we will have to wait and see if the rumor of Apple January 27th launch event pans out.
