AppleInsider.com is citing a rumor from a Chinese production plant that Apple has created a new 7-inch iPad, supposedly that is more like the iPhone 4.
From the report:
“Yes there will be a (7-inch) tablet, yes it’s well underway in terms of product development and in fact it’s a finished product,”
“Yes 5 plus different designs have been floating around to help Apple protect itself from people discovering its next product look and feel but… the final design will in fact bear more resemblance to the iPhone 4 stylings than the original iPad design.”
Rumors of the new, smaller “mini” iPad have been floating around for awhile now. The smaller iPad version may be a move by Apple to compete with other ereader type devices such as the Kindle. A lower price than its bigger brother would certainly make it more appealing to consumers.
AppleInsider cautiously points to a couple other reports laden with details that support the “iPad Mini” rumors.
