The Los Angeles Times is reporting that a team from the New York Times has been working inside Apple Headquarters on a tablet app.

Apple has been slowly amassing digital reading material for the forthcoming device. A team from the New York Times has been working in Apple's Cupertino, Calif., headquarters in recent weeks, developing a large-screen version of the newspaper's iPhone application that incorporates video for the yet-to-be-unveiled device, according to one person with knowledge of the matter. A Times spokeswoman declined to comment.

Apple is expected to announce the tablet during a special event this Wednesday.
