A pair of new reports suggest that Apple plans to hold a special media event on January 27, not Jan. 26 as had been rumored, at which it will likely introduce a possible beta version of iPhone OS 4.0 and an accompanying SDK. Citing multiple sources close to Apple, AllThingsD reports that the company is planning to hold a media event on Wednesday, January 27 at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, at which it will announce a major new product, most likely the long-rumored tablet. French-language Mac4Ever adds (Translated Link) that in addition to the tablet, Apple will also announce a beta of iPhone OS 4.0 and its SDK at the event. According to the report, the SDK will include a tablet simulator, and will make it easier for developers to adapt apps to different screen resolutions, opening the door for a higher resolution display on the fourth-generation iPhone.
