CrunchPad prototype coming this month, be available ASAP

Big Mike has been pretty quiet about the CrunchPad since it was first leaked the other month and for good reason. We’ve heard from reliable sources that Apple is still on track with an oversized iPod Touch in the coming months. We more or less know everything there is to know about the CrunchPad, but a few more specs have popped up thanks to the NYT and SF Biz Times. The CP, made by Fusion Garage, is 16mm thick with a 12-inch screen encased in aluminum.

Arrington will supposedly schedule an event for the end of this month or early August. It will retail for less than $300 and be available “as soon as possible.” I wonder if we’ll get some company issued CrunchPads for CrunchGear.
