Apple sent out invitations to members of the media with the
offer to visit the special event. Event that a long rumored will be held on 23 October
in the building of California Theatre in San Jose.
The invitation Apple says: "We've got a little more to show
you" - "We still have something for you." The word "little" (literally,
"little") in the text - a reference to the fact that the company will
present a compact model of the tablet iPad mini.
Previously, the newspaper The Wall Street Journal reported
that the iPhone maker will send journalists invited to the presentation iPad
mini 11 October, and the event will be held in San Francisco on 17 October.
However, this is not confirmed. Perhaps, Apple really going to send out
invitations to this day, but at the last minute postponed the presentation.
It is assumed that the iPad mini will have a screen with a
diagonal of 7.85 inches with a resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels instead of
9.7-inch displays used in iOS-plates to date. Informed sources say that the new
"apple" gadget will be a self-contained product, not a miniature copy
of the existing device.
iPad launch compact model is considered as a response to
Apple gradual rise in popularity of portable and more affordable tablets with
screen 7 inches. Amazon has achieved great success in the launch of Kindle
Fire, and now the company has decided to develop it, to submit an updated
family of Kindle Fire HD, while selling millions of Google Nexus 7, the cost of
which starts at $ 200 with good characteristics.
Along with a mini-tablet, Apple may release a new version of
its full-size 9.7-inch iPad with the new screen, connectors and Lightning
network support LTE. The company's goal in this case - to reduce weight,
improves image quality and increase the battery life of the device by using a
fundamentally new display. A new screen will make the third Cupertino iPad is
thinner and lighter than previous models.
It is also expected that the official event Apple Unveils
13-inch MacBook Pro with the Retina display and the new line of iMac computers
and the Mac Mini.
Presentation of the iPad mini will be three days before the
official release on the market of the new Windows 8 platform and "tablets" Microsoft Surface - a new player in the market of tablet computers.
