But I’m waiting for the mini — I want one but a smaller size would be great.

But for suppliers to be sending samples to Apple now means the decision was made a long time ago. And that would not have happened without Steve. Slashgear posts way too many unfounded rumors and this is probably just another one.

It’d make a lot of sense to not let that segment to the competition, especially because it chimes with their usual market.

Assuming that Apple doesn’t pull a Samsung and only knock a negligible amount off the price. At 469, they can kiss my ass. 300 and we’re talking turkey.

Next year isn’t “so soon”. They’re going to have some super stiff competition in the face of the probable Kindle Fire 2 at their current price and size, so they need to get their crap sorted sooner rather than later.

Or maybe it’s not an iPad, but a bigger iPod!

Seeing as they didn’t cave to all the pressure for a completely redesigned iPhone 5 this time around, I highly doubt we’ll see an iPad Mini next time. iPad sales have been doing just fine on their own lol

But I would still buy this. I’ll still prefer a 3.5 ipod / iphone screen though.
