Microsoft's major announcement: a Barnes & Noble tablet?

[JMH]

When I was a child I used to play connect-the-dots on the weekend, linking the points on a diagram to form an image of what was essentially a bunch of numbers and clues.
The vast majority of this weekend has been spent forming a similar puzzle in my head: Microsoft's major announcement on Monday.
Speculation on Microsoft's super secret press conference has reached fever pitch.
Some believe it's an iPad competitor, others feel it's a Hulu deal, there are ideas around Nokia's involvement, and then there's an additional theory that it's a tablet without Windows. Time for some guesses of our own — what does the company really have up its sleeve?
