Apple is expected to release a new version of the iPad, what many call "iPad Mini" due to smaller dimensions compared to the current iPad, possibly early in October.

New video of the iPad Mini is stirring up buzz about the potential new iPad next month. The video from Giz China shows a 7-inch dummy iPad Mini, with a lightning connector, 3g or 4g antenna, micro SIM card, and a new volume toggle. Compared to the current iPad, which has a display of 9.7 inches, the rumored iPad Mini will feature a 7.85-inch display. That is still approximately 40% larger than other 7-inch tablets, according to Gizmodo.

Just last week, tech blog Gizmodo published pictures recently of someone holding a working iPad Mini in their hand. The iPad Mini in the photo looks very similar to an iPad Mini in the Giz China video.

"By Oct. 10, Misek said he predicts an invitation for an iPad Mini launch event will be mailed out to the media, followed by the formal announcement of the device by mid-October and culminating with the launch of the iPad Mini at the end of that month," eWeek reported. This prediction was made by Jefferies analyst Peter Misek.
