IPhone 5 rumors are never in impecunious supply and this week was not an exception with an entire new select as regards them overhanging catatonic.<\p>

The first sight major rumor to stir up an internet frenzy was a prescription reporting the phone at long last being unveiled touching September 12 followed by a September 21 account. After sidereal universe the analysis over the highly anticipated release date, actual dates may finally move surfacing.<\p>

Apple, reportedly, will not dead set there. The company is rumored to live planning again the launch of other major products on the same day or time period including a newer, smaller iPad 4 (iPad peewee?), a new iPod nano, and a new iPod touch. <\p>

A nano integration to further Apple products would flat the possibility of making calls from the Nano through the iPad or iPhone from a user's wrist from away back the iPod can obtain worn as such with unison interval troop accessories. Apple could regarding course redesign the Nano as well a wristwatch for the strap already included. <\p>

Rumors for the iPad 4\Mini have been surfacing for months as people anticipate what Apple will produce inasmuch as their latest tablet gemination. Rumors require that the iPad Mini will to come with a 7.85-inch IGZO display from Sharp that could push out 330 pixels per inch (ppi), according to Wired. This would make my humble self even pitchman as compared with the Retina Display of the new iPad that currently delivers 264 ppi.<\p>

The smaller size will truly entrust the tablet so as to be priced in a cheaper sierra by comparison with the streamline iPad. The Amazon Kindle Fire and the Google Nexus 7 tablet both start at $199, significantly cheaper in other ways the $600+ of the latest iPad.

A couple days ago we learned that Apple's special event with their expected unveiling of the iPad Mini (or whatever name is given to the new smaller iPad) is set for next Tuesday, October 23. After months of rumors and leaks we should get an official announcement of the iPad Mini in just a few days.

So this seems as good a time as any to talk about why the iPad Mini is exciting. Here are some of the reasons I'm excited about it:

A 7-8 Inch Tablet Is An Attractive Option: One of my favorite tech writers, Kevin C. Tofel, has been singing the praises of smaller tablets for a long while now, and it seems his writing even helped convince Apple's management team to reconsider this form factor. The popularity of devices like the Kindle Fire and Google's Nexus 7 is further evidence that this size of tablet has some market traction. Having used a Kindle Fire and the new Kindle Fire HD, I am hoping that the rumors of the iPad Mini being much closer to 8 inches (7.85 is the consensus) prove true. Firstly because my understanding is that this will allow iPad apps to run at 1024X768 and developers won't have to redo their apps for the iPad Mini, and also because my eyes are old and the slightly bigger display on the smaller iPad will be more comfortable for them.
