People familiar with Apple’s plans told the website that the company will unveil the so-called ‘iPad mini’ on October 23 at an invitation-only event.
The date happens to be just three days before Microsoft’s new Surface tablet is due to hit the shops.
It has been suggested the launch event will take place at Apple’s Town Hall Auditorium, where it has debuted a number of products there in the past – OS X Lion, a next-generation MacBook Air and the iPhone 4S.
The unveiling of the iPhone 5 and the 2012 iPod line was held at San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, leaving people to believe that this launch will be a smaller affair.
Sources say the iPad’s smaller sibling will feature a 7.85-inch liquid-crystal display and a Lightning connector, according to AllThingsD.
