- 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.
