Apple iPad Mini

Looks like Apple is following others with a small Tablet ...
The newer Smartphones have screens up to 5" and we have 7" and 10" Tablets. Hopefully this should give everyone a suitably sized mobile device!

Apple iPad Mini 'confirmed' for October launch, say reports 
Apple will unveil the iPad Mini at a special event in October, according to the AllThingsD site.
The report claims the eagerly-anticipated device will be unveiled at a separate event to the iPhone 5, which, it is believed, will be announced on September 12. AllThingsD, which has an excellent track record in these matters, goes as far to say as the sub-8-inch tablet's launch is 'confirmed' for October. "Only after the next generation iPhone is out the door and on sale will Apple announce the smaller iPad it's been working on," says the article. "That device, which is expected to have a display of less than eight inches, will be uncrated at a second special event, which sources said is currently scheduled for October."

From DOA to A-OK.

The iPad mini has been subject to a ton of speculation in recent months as Amazon and Google continue to perform well with their 7-inch tablets, the Kindle Fire and the Nexus 7. Steve Jobs once claimed that 7-inch slates were dead on arrival, but it appears the company is now ready to pull the trigger on a smaller model, without splitting the spotlight between the Mini and the iPhone 5. As AllThingsD also points out, holding two launches around a month apart will give Apple to control the tech headlines at an important time of the year. We'd suggest that there'll be more than a few tech fans already pencilling in both, ready to send that letter to Santa up the chimney.
