Apple has sent out invites to the likes of Engadget inviting them to a press event to be held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco at 10:00 am PST on Wednesday the 27th.

With the tagline of “Come see our latest creation.”, the feeling is that this will finally be the announcement of the long rumored Apple Tablet, which some are also calling the iSlate due to some legal documents filed by the company.  While there are no guarantees that is what is being unveiled next week, it would require a new product from Apple to have been developed with absolutely no leaked information coming out at all, a fairly unlikely situation.

Traditionally Apple has held events on Tuesdays, so the original assumption had been this event would be on the 26th as it was known Apple had reserved the facility for a few days at the end of the January.  There has been no word on why the event was moved from the traditional day.

We will have all of the news for you as soon as it comes out.
