Apple News:
Rumors are a’swirlin’ regarding the still top secret iPhone 5 and other mysterious Apple products! Everyone is assuming that the next wave of iDevices will be hitting shelves this Fall and while details are under wraps, analysts are already making predictions about what to expect. First of all, there’s that ever-mysterious iPhone 5, which is rumored to have slightly larger screen than its predecessors (and, controversially, will replace Apple’s standard 30 pin connector with a new 19 pin version). The latest iPod Touch is also shrouded in mystery, but it will supposedly look very similar to the new iPhone, including a four inch screen and an aluminum back. Finally, there’s the item that may not even actually exist but probably does: the iPad Mini. The iPad Mini is rumored to have a 7.85 inch screen, but other than that…who knows? In any case, the wait shouldn’t be too long now…
