- 17 Aug 2012:Apple's iPad Mini has been the source of many rumors over the last several weeks.

Both companies reportedly held firm in their respective beliefs, as Samsung believes Apple should pay royalties for using wireless transmission technology, while Apple believes Samsung copied the design of its iPhone and iPad.
- 15 May 2012:If there's one thing that's getting old already, it's rumors of a new, smaller iPad. Much like the fabled Apple television set, talk of the mini iPad doesn't seem to be dying.

Now, a new rumor is pointing toward an October unveiling, right about the same time that Apple is supposed to unveil its next iPhone.
