Original Article: “Apple’s iPad Mini May Be Announced on October 10th”
As tech enthusiasts eagerly await Apple’s much-anticipated iPhone release scheduled for mid-October, speculation surrounding another possible product announcement is gathering steam. Reports indicate that the technology giant could reveal details of its latest and potentially smallest addition to their ever growing family – The iPad Mini – on October 10th during a special media event.
Although no official statements have been made by Apple in regards to an upcoming tablet unveiling, numerous sources including BGR and AllThingsD are citing highly trusted inside tips which indicate the rumored announcement date is drawing ever nearer as employees from both companies begin receiving invitations for a press event scheduled at Apple’s California headquarters on October 10th.
The iPad Mini has been subject to much speculation since its first reported sighting in July, with various sources claiming that it will feature a smaller seven-inch display and run the latest iOS6 operating system – which is expected to be launched around this time as well. Rumors also suggest that Apple may opt for an ultra thin design similar to their current iPad model while incorporating some of its most popular features such as FaceTime, Siri and 4G capabilities in a more portable device suited specifically for everyday use.
However it’s important not to get too carried away with the hype surrounding this potential announcement just yet – Apple has been known to keep their cards close to their chest when it comes to new product releases, often leaving tech pundits and enthusiasts guessing until the very last minute before making any official statements. That being said though, given the number of high profile sources claiming an October 10th event as well as previous announcements around this time in years past – such as iPhone launches back in both 2007 & 2008 and more recently the iPad 2 last year- it’s certainly a possibility that we could be seeing Apple’s latest tablet addition sooner rather than later.
As always, only time will tell whether these rumors hold any weight or not – but with less than two weeks until this highly anticipated media event, one thing is for sure: The tech world can hardly contain its excitement as the clock ticks down to what could potentially be another groundbreaking product announcement from Apple.
