Rumor has it that the iPad Mini will be released by Apple this coming week in an event. However, do not expect too much, because everything that is and was connected to the smaller iPad has been just plain rumors. A lot of people are still confused as to whether or not to sell iPad to buy this tablet because its existence is not yet ensured by Apple. This tablet is expected to be between 7 to 8 inches, and is to become a rival of smaller tablets like Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD.

As the hype for this much-awaited tablet is getting stronger, more and more rumors are spreading across the Web. It has always been like that for Apple devices, but then again, we are still not sure if this is true. If the iPad Mini is on its way, then it will probably change the tablet market.

Although the iPad is more known as a media consumption device, there are a lot of people in business that use it in any industry.

But why is the Apple tablet computer successful? One reason is the numerous quality apps that are in the App Store. It helps in the dominance of the iPad in the market, driving interest from consumers, which in turn attracts more app developers. It is in a self-feeding cycle, resulting in apps that perform great for any use whether it is business or personal.

There have been changes, both noticeable and unnoticeable, since the launch of the first generations of the iPhone and the iPad. One change is the iOS integration with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.

The iPad Mini will be another turning point not only for Apple but for the electronics market, if it costs $250 or $300. Most 7-inch tablets have a price range of $200 to $250. It makes sense that the smaller iPad will be about $250 in order to conquer them. It will attract more business consumers. Why? If the iPad is already great, having the same functions and features for half the cost is a great allure for consumers.

Besides, it will be great for Apple especially since many companies now are either giving away iPhones and iPads to their employees, or allowing them to bring their own devices. The iPad Mini is timely.

How about those who are more oriented with Android, Windows Phone or BlackBerry devices? I suggest that they take a look at the potential value of the smaller iPad.  They can also weigh its features and capabilities and compare them to the Android devices.

So what if everything that we hear about the iPad Mini is just rumors? Is it really not enough to sell old iPad and prepare for it? Yes, rumors are never enough. However, we can still hope for this tablet.

Besides, the main point of this article is that the iPad Mini is good for consumers. Whether or not the iPad Mini exists, it is still safe to assume its probable position in the market.
