Oct 12 (Reuters) – Apple Inc is expected to take
the wraps off its highly anticipated mini iPad at an Oct. 23
invitation-only event, reported tech blog AllThingsD on Friday,
citing sources familiar with the company.
The event would come before Microsoft Corp unveils
its latest operating system, Windows 8, and its new Surface
tablet on Oct. 26.
An Apple spokesman declined to comment.
Speculation has been swirling for months that Apple was
planning a smaller, less expensive version of its popular iPad
to take on cheaper competing devices.
Apple shares were down 0.2 percent at $626.51 in morning
Nasdaq trade.
