Boy Genius Report gives out a few tidbits, calling the Apple Tablet an iPhone on Steroids:

There hasn’t been an updated iPhone OS build because there’s too much tablet-related code/references in the OS and Apple obviously didn’t want that to leak. Oops.
The tablet is basically an “iPhone on steroids.”
