Apple's September 10 iPhone Media Event Said to Also Include New iPads [Updated]
Buried in an article about Apple's upcoming Tokyo retail store, Bloomberg briefly mentions that Apple's September 10 media event will see the introduction of not only new iPhone models, but also new iPads.
The September 10 date for Apple's iPhone media event was reported by AllThingsD earlier this month and all but confirmed over the following few days by a number of other sources, but the event had been thought to be focused solely on the iPhone and iOS 7.
Given the casual nature with which Bloomberg mentions that new iPads are expected at the event, it is possible that it is an error, as rumors have suggested that the new iPads would not appear until closer to the end of the year. Apple has even been reported to perhaps be pushing back the release of iOS 7 for iPad by a few weeks relative to the iPhone version of the software, with the new iPads and their version of iOS 7 appearing at a later media event.
Update: Bloomberg made a similar quiet mention of both iPhones and iPads appearing at the September 10 event in an article last week.
Update 2: Bloomberg has now updated its article to remove mention of new tablets at Apple's September 10 event.
Update 3: The Loop's Jim Dalrymple has confirmed that there will be no iPads introduced at Apple's September 10 iPhone media event.
The Cupertino, California-based company plans to introduce new versions of its phone and tablet at a Sept. 10 event, a person familiar with the matter has said, and the company promised “several more game changers” in the product pipeline as it tries to fend off Samsung Electronics Co. and Chinese makers selling cheaper handsets.

if that is true... i cant believe.... seems apple now gives all attention to the "toy-users" and leaves the "pro-users" behind.
about time for a rmbp refresh...
You should have added the "Safari is snappier" and "Steve would not allow it" to make the full typical statement

Yeah, doubt it. iOS 7 is already behind for the iPads. It wouldn't make sense for Apple to release them that soon. Moreover, the September 10th event would be too busy.

It wouldn't be that unusual to reveal the new iPads but hold off until the fall for their release.
Kinda like they did with the Mac Pro.

Strong indication that the iPhone 5S will be a very very very minor upgrade.

I don't mind my current mini for reading but an improvement will hopefully mean I can read longer without any eye fatigue
You should try out a separate e-ink reader device in this case.

I can see them detailing the new iPad lineup and just releasing them in Oct. It would be a complete iOS event then. iPhone's, iPad's and iOS 7.
I'll go out on a limb and say this is true.

Which is pathetic considering they've had an entire year to go all out.
But it's okay, let the competitors grow even more.
Or perhaps you can wait until the 10th before doing the usual "apple is doomed" comment

No you shouldn't. Like separate iPods, separate readers are obsolete technology. You wouldn't buy a separate digital photo frame anymore. It's over. Multi-purpose is here to stay and rule.
You don't seem to understand much - the original poster stated his problems with eye fatigue when reading books on the mini. Although the functionality of an e-ink reader is extremly limited to its purpose, a definite advantage it HAS for those people with sensitive eyes is the display in comparison to backlit LCD/LED or whatever. Do your research, google is your friend. Nichts für ungut, Gudi.
