What can we expect at todays Apple conference, The announcement of the company’s long awaited iPad Mini, a rumored 13 inch Macbook Pro with Retina display and a possible announcement of iBooks 3.0. Looks like Apple is ready for the holiday season with all these devices.
Though Apple’s little tablet won’t necessarily be named “iPad Mini” (my heart is still set on “Lil’ iPad”), the iPad Mini moniker does pretty well describe what we think we’ll see: Imagine the basic dimensions of the iPad with the 10-inch screen, and then shrink that thing down until the screen is 7.85-inches diagonally, and you’ve pretty much got the basic idea behind the smaller iPad.
9to5Mac and AllThingsD — two websites with deep Apple connections — have both reported that Apple is prepared to show off a new MacBook Pro as a kind of alley to the iPad Mini’s oop.
