It’ll also come in 3G and an LTE version as well, but as for hardware and more detailed specifications, we’ll have to wait until tomorrow.

We also don’t know if it will have a Retina screen. While the logical answer would be to say that it does, it requires a lot of battery power and the leaks so far haven’t confirmed that rumour.

One more thing to keep in mind – it may not be called the iPad Mini. Bets are that it will be called something different, like the “iPad Air”. Keeping it in line with other product titles would make sense.

More in the realm of music

Apple teased iTunes 11 last month, and said it would be released sometime in October. Expect a bigger demonstration tomorrow, and possibly an announcement that it will be available for download.

Some tweaks to the bigger iPad

The full-size iPad got a refresh earlier this year with the Retina screen and a nicer camera, but expect more tweaks tomorrow. They won’t be huge, but expect a Lightning connection port and perhaps a better camera.

And some computers

Another update to the MacBook Pro line is expected tomorrow, with the 13-inch form factor expected to receive the Retina screen. Some images of leaked components have already suggested this will be the case. It’s only logical the Retina screen is passed down to other products as well.

Another rumour also suggests the company will update the Mac Mini, which hasn’t undergone a review in some time. The iMac is also expected to see some changes, which will probably be in the realm of new processors and faster hardware rather than any cosmetic shifts.

SmartCompany will be reporting on the announcement early tomorrow morning. Be sure to come back and read all about Apple’s latest announcements.
