<\/a><\/div>\nIt’s sort of funny that this is the hardest evidence we have of an Apple tablet<\/a>, but here we go: mobile app analytics company Flurry<\/a> is saying that it’s detected around 50 devices on Apple’s Cupertino campus that have the “characteristics” of a tablet, running a new version of the iPhone OS numbered 3.2. How? Around 200 different apps with Flurry’s tracking code were downloaded and used on these mystery devices — mostly games, followed by entertainment and media apps — and Flurry first noticed this new device in October, with numbers picking up in January. Unfortunately, Flurry hasn’t said what these mysterious tablet characteristics are<\/i>, so we don’t have much to go on — and without specifics like a bigger screen size or a faster processor we’re skeptical. For all we know, this is just a new iPhone running a slightly tweaked build of OS 3.0 that supports a higher-resolution screen or something — especially looking at that 3.2 version number, when everything else we’ve heard suggests the tablet will jump to 4.0.<\/p>\n What’s more, 200 apps in the grand scheme of things really isn’t that many — Flurry only tracks small percentage of the 100,000 apps in the App Store. We’re not exactly willing to accept any detailed analysis based on a dataset that narrow, so let’s just say that it’s very likely that Apple’s testing new devices running a new version of the iPhone OS and leave it at that until Wednesday<\/a>, shall we?<\/p>\n Apple tablet starts showing up in app-tracking stats, kinda<\/a> originally appeared on Engadget<\/a> on Sun, 24 Jan 2010 23:43:00 EST.
