\'iPad Mini\' name said to be Apple choice

Rumors Apple\'s anticipated 7-inch tablet will be called the \"iPad Mini\" are apparently on the mark and Apple will make it official, a Japanese tech site says. Apple blog site Macotakara, citing an unnamed source, said Apple is officially planning to bestow the \"iPad Mini\" moniker on the 7.85-inch tablet, PC Magazine reported Monday. While there has been speculation Apple would introduce the slimmed-down tablet when it unveils the next iPhone Sept. 12, indication now suggest Apple will debut the new tablet at a later, separate event, PC Magazine said. Speculation is rife that although the current iPad is known for its high-resolution Retina display, the little-brother version may feature a cheaper, lower-resolution screen that would let Apple price the smaller tablet to compete with Google\'s Nexus 7 and Amazon\'s Kindle Fire, both available at $199.
