Apple rumoured to release 7-inch iPad in October!

Well, as usual, the rumour mill is all a-churning again with the latest bit of ‘leaked’ info that Apple is set to release a new 7″ iPad this Autumn. The device is also said to have an unlikely Apple price of somewhere between €200-€250.

Now, this particular rumour has been circulating for months and months now but it really has appeared to gain more traction in the last couple of days with a couple of sources adding info to the pot.

If Apple were to release this iPad (nano?), it would definitely be a very blatant attack on the likes of the smaller screened iPad competitors such as the Kindle Fire and Blackberry Playbook, both of which aren’t massively successful to begin with.The device would more than likely have a retina display and some impressive processing power so it would become king of the 7″ market in no time as well.

Apple are believed to announce this new tablet alongside their latest version of the iPhone, the iPhone 5/iphone 4GS/the new iPhone, whatever the hell it will be called, later on this year.

So what do you think guys, if you aren’t already an iPad convert, would this new smaller tablet tempt you to join the iPad brigade?
