Apple rumours about its various products never die down. This time, in another Internet-fueled report, Apple's iPad Mini is expected to hit the market by Nov. 2.
According to a report on CNET, the smaller version of Apple's popular iPad will reach customers' hands on Friday, Nov. 2, roughly after 10 days of its speculated launch on Oct. 23.
According to Geeky Gadgets, "Apple will start selling the new iPad Mini on Friday the 2nd of November. The device will be available in the US And UK on this date, possibly some other countries as well. The iPad Mini will go up for pre-order on the same week it is announced, possibly Friday the 26th of October, although our source was not 100 percent sure this would be the exact pre-order date," the report said.
The tech giant had already sent out invitations titled "We've got a little more to show you' for a media event on October 23 during which it is expected to unveil iPad Mini. "Apple will hold a special event this month, at which it will showcase a new, smaller iPad. People familiar with Apple's plans tell us that the company will unveil the so-called "iPad mini" on Oct. 23 at an invitation-only event," AllThingsD had earlier reported.
The device, believed to feature a 7.85-inch screen with a $250 to $300 price tag, will fight its cheaper pears from market domination. The smaller, cheaper tablet will go toe-to-toe with the likes of the Kindle Fire HD, Nexus 7, Nook HD and Kindle Fire.
