Apple Engineer Visiting China More. Wonder Why?

I guess if I were working for a company manufacturing some kind of
long-awaited killer new product, and if I were an engineer, I'd
probably be on a lot of plane flights to where the manufacturers are.
Hmmm...now where are Apple products made again?

Oh, that's right. All the manufacturers mentioned in conjunction with
the mythical (possible/likely?) Apple tablet are all based in Asia. And
according to Alaska Miller at The Business Insider, a source tells them
that a friend of his working for Apple as a system integration engineer
keeps making all these trips to China.
What's more, apparently, this friend doesn't even get to count on
the Christmas holiday season without a vacation to the Pacific rim for a couple of weeks. That does sound important, now doesn't it?
If this is legit, it sounds like Apple's got something close to
completion they'd like to roll out relatively early in the new year.
Why am I somehow doubting it's a retooled line of iMacs?
