If its nice I'm selling my iPad 3, and getting one. The 7 inch form factor is nice, iOS 6 on a 7 incher could b a sweet combo.

I'm not trying to troll or anything, but iOS 6 isn't something that I would be excited about. Its a incrimental update to iOS 5. But who knows? It could be a good update if Apple played its cards right...

Compared to other 7-inch tablet that exists, this tablet would be like, 20-30% larger compared to others because of its 4:3 aspect ratio..and i can't find the hole for the rear camera? Is it there? or am i blind? LOL

They have been clever so far not to make 7" iPad. They cannot reduce the cost much comparing to 10" variant and they will have to sell for much less. If they set the price at $300 they will not make a profit and that can affect 10" iPad sales. If they sell it for $350 or more they cannot compete with Nexus 7.

U never know. Apples a smart company, and tapping into a different market with a sound brand name would b instant success.
