Rumours Report Apple's Release of "Mini iPad" Soon

iPads, iPhones, and Macs, OH MY!

I love Apple. And anyone who knows me well enough will tell you the same thing.

My infatuation with a capitalistic and monopolized brand (especially when it comes to its own products) is fully explainable. A corporation, like Apple, who devotes itself to ridding all its product of toxic parts and invests in greener, efficient technology (see: http://www.apple.com/environment/), cannot be rivaled in any sense. Obviously, this is my biased opinion. However, no other computer company chooses to boast, as Apple does, about their great innovations and advances through technology while maintaing a green footprint, because they do not work as hard as Apple does to effectively do so. Oh, and they also make exceptionally beautifully designed products with the latest software. That's always a plus.

With that rant out of the way, one can see how devoted and informed I am about Apple, Inc. as a whole. However, with the new iPhone 5 just released, speculations have been buzzing around with a revamped and miniature (and possibly cheaper) version of Apple's iPad, called the ''iPad mini."

I randomly stumbled upon this story while diligently trying to research when exactly Apple's new version of iTunes 11 was slated to be released; I am extremely eager for the new update, since it is a completely redesigned application (see: http://www.apple.com/itunes/new-itunes/). Apparently, the new release is expected to be released in late October (probably around the 2^nd - 3^rd week of the month) at aevent n that is believed to be specially for the release of a new iPad mini.

According to the International Business Times, (see link for full article below), it makes sense for these two October events to be taking place simultaneously.

"CNN Money reported that a major Apple investor, citing "multiple sources," pegged the unveiling of the new iPad Mini for Wednesday, Oct. 17," the IBT said.

Apparently, photographs of alleged parts and reports of mass production of the iPad mini are also plaguing the Internet. Who knows if this is just a rumour, or actual reality, but the truth will ultimately be revealed by Apple in the forthcoming weeks.

It has also been revealed that news sites like PC Magazine, USA Today, and Fox News all started to report that Apple would be holding separate events for the iPhone 5 and iPad Mini. There has yet to be confirmation from Apple on the latter.


I'm just excited for iTunes 11. However, a new iPad for the upcoming Holidays would be great, as long as it doesn't hurt my wallet.

Will Apple come through? Who knows. I'm sure it'll be a beautiful gadget, but it won't come cheap... Apple will make sure of that.
