iPad Mini: Leaked Details
According to Bloomberg (U.S. group specializing in financial markets and economic information), Apple could launch a new iPad smaller and cheaper in the month of October. It is, in any case, what he suggested some sources close to the Californian company. This iPad Mini, as it is called for convenience in reference to fire and the iPod mini, could propose a diagonal screen size of 7 or 8 inches, as against 9.7 inches for the current version.

This model, however, benefit from a Retina display, but a resolution "classic".

The first two, featuring a 7 inch screen should be sold around $ 200. It would therefore be likely to imagine that Apple iPad positions its "entry level" in a similar range of rates.

The creation of the mini iPad whose rumored even before the launch of the new iPad, last March, could thus emerge. Bloomberg sources speak of an announcement in October. At the same time as the new iPhone? Perhaps. Anyway, time for the holiday season and to heap scorn on competition on Android and Windows.

Update July 16, 2011

According to Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal, it was the turn of a key player in the third to give weight and credit to rumors of an iPad Mini. In an article published today, 16 July 2012, the New York Times (NYT) says that "Apple is not about to let go of the field to competition because the company is currently developing a new tablet, including a screen of 7.85 inches.
