Yet another Taiwan issue is saying that a 7 - inch iPad is coming . This rumor is n’t new . In fact , it wasone of the first rumored size . It echoes the always - unreliable Digitimes and iLounge’slatest story , but is it really possible ?

iLounge recently arrogate that a “ highly reliable origin ” state them of a 7 - in iPad along with “ news ” of an antenna - determine iPhone 4 — hail out as early on as January 2010 . They also refer an iPod touch with a lowly sieve than the iPhone . Back in other 2010 , iLounge’soriginal Apple tablet rumorssaid that Apple was preparing a 7 - inch pill . At the end , though , they backpedaled , saying that Apple recall a 7 - in screen was too small , and that that Steve Jobs & Co. decided on a 10.7 - inch iPad or else .
The iPad ’s screen size is 9.7 inches .
similarly , Digitimes has been banging the 7 - inch iPad drum for a prospicient time . Unlike the Economic Daily News — which point at an IPS show — Digitimes said the projection screen is OLED . It ’s highly improbable that Apple will use OLED for anything , given the winner of their IPS Retina display and that it is impossible to get OLED screens in the monolithic quantity Apple would need . The Economic Daily News claim this “ iPad 2 ” is coming for the holiday time of year . Now that would be a Christmas surprise .
Why a smaller iPad?
Proponents of this hearsay say that drop dead down to seven inches will probably make the iPad easy . They also say it will be cheap to make and that Apple wants to keep control of the market they created by offering more flavors .
But we fuck that Apple has tried different formats for the iPad before settling on the 9.7 inch form constituent . There ’s nothing awry with that format . If anything , it ’s too small for reading things like comic Christian Bible . But it feels good to cover , and has resulted in more than three million social unit sell in very short clock time ( when everyoneexcept a fewpredicted its catastrophic failure ) .

It does n’t make sense to change the gain formula with a blind that will be too small for comfortable meter reading , while being just double the size of an iPod . And the market does n’t seem crowing enough yet to have space for another feel .
At this point , the only thing that the iPad needs is a higher resolution screen at the same 9.7 - inch size . We will probably see this when version 2 is unfreeze — believably in a year from now .
Could the rumor be true?
Could therumor reposted by microcomputer Worldbe true ? Who knows . It does n’t seem very reasonable to me and Taiwanese paper have a history of post false tech industriousness storey about Apple product to boost the report of constituent manufacturer . At the same sentence , the actual providers are super exacting about secrecy because their contracts with Apple depend on it .
Like with every Apple rumour — especially in the summer — it ’s better to be extremely questioning until Steve Jobs actually confirms it on stage .
