There is a Mini iPad!
Apple Inc. may unveil a smaller version of the iPad at an event on Oct. 23, according to a person familiar with the matter who asked not to be named because the plans aren’t public.
Newspaper report here.
Tech Radar has a page where it gathers all the rumours and updates on Apple iPad mini.... if you simply can't wait to get your hands on one... here is the link for all the updates.
You can get rumoured details of the launch date, name, pricing, and tech specs.
For those who just want a quick summary:-
Basically, Yes, the iPad Mini would be named iPad Mini.
October is almost certain to be the launch period, with 23rd Oct a very likely date.
The price is expected to be around USD $250.
Well, we're still unsure whether Apple will go down the iPad Mini route. Steve Jobs made his stance on smaller tablets quite clear, and it would be a daring move by the Cupertino firm to go against its popular former boss.
But the budget tablet market is one that is definitely growing, and one that Apple isn't currently part of, so it won't be too much of a surprise if the firm does decide to go down this route.
We'd love to see a new iPad Mini come to market, since it would certainly give Amazon and co a run for their money... plus it would be intriguing to see what Apple would do with the smaller format.
