Apple and Wintek have once again been cast together in the ongoing drama of the Apple Media Pad touchscreen tablet.  First named back in March as a supplier of 10-inch capacitive touch-panels for an unknown product from the Cupertino company, additional sources, this time notebook-related IC designers, have reconfirmed that Wintek has indeed won the panel order from Apple.

This latest round of leaks adds in the news that the Apple device is an “e-book form factor netbook product”, which matches with the recent talk of a handheld touchscreen slate-format device. It is anticipated that it will slot in-between the iPod touch and a normal Apple notebook, the Media Pad will prioritize internet access and VoIP, and have integrated WiFi.
