"Apple prepping iPad mini - ReportBy Tom Magrino, GameSpotPosted Mar 1, 2012 11:34 am PTTech company said to begin manufacturing 7.85-inch Kindle Fire competitor later this year, possibly priced at $250 to $300.

FacebookApple enthusiasts are looking to next week for the first details on the iPad 3, but that may not be the only tablet-related announcement the company has up its sleeve. DigiTimes reports today that Apple may also unveil an iPad mini.


An iPhone 4 is 4.5 inches, for those wondering.
According to DigiTimes' sources, Apple's iPad makers have begun manufacturing prototype devices that measure 7.85 inches in height. The current iPad 2 model measures 9.5 inches, down from the original iPad's 9.58 inches. The report notes that Apple is positioning the device as a competitor to Amazon's $200 Kindle Fire.

Production on the device is expected to ramp up in the July-September 2012 quarter, though no launch date was provided. DigiTimes' sources also indicated that the iPad mini will retail for $250 to $300.

Apple will be holding a press event on March 7 at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Center. The media briefing coincides with the 2012 Game Developers Conference, which will occupy San Francisco's Moscone Center from March 5-9.

When will people learn that just because Apple sends out specs for a device, that doesn't mean shit when it comes to actually being released? Talk to the Chinese dumbasses that made thousands of teardrop shaped iPhone 5 cases last year and see how much stock they're willing to put into dumb rumors like those.

it's China. It's not like it cost them anything in labor to actually put the shit together. and they can just dump the shit in a river if it doesn't work out

If apple makes an 8 inch tablet for under 300 bucks I'll probably be all over it.

I'm no fan of Apple and haven't bought any of their products since the first gen ipod mini, but nobody else has put out a decent 8 inch tablet for a reasonable price.

You've really got it all wrong. I didn't even like Steve Jobs all that much when he was alive. I just thought it was an amusing picture.

But then again, being a dumbass is kind of your thing, so carry on doing what you do best, I suppose.

Spot on. Fast speeds are great but worthless if I cant use it more than a week.

Is there a general consensus on which provider is the best for 4G LTE in North Carolina?

i would guess the coverage is the same as for other cell phones. you'd have to go to att/verizon's website to look for pricing.

I honestly don't understand why everyone is getting all worked up about "The new iPad" Is it really that big of a deal what the name is? Everyone's going to call it the iPad3 anyway.

I got through and managed to snag a 64 4G (AT&T) black and an apple tv

I got the confirmation email about 2 minutes later. Hoping I made the right choice with AT&T, didn't have much time to research

Still a dual core processor, btw. Also 1GB of RAM instead of the old 512 amount.
