“Apple is developing one or possibly two 6-inch versions of the iPad, a report from Czech site SuperApple.cz suggests,” Electronista reports.
“One source describes a model just under the 6-inch mark, while a separate source makes the specific claim of a 5.7-inch tablet,” Electronista reports. “Many details of the alleged product(s) remain unclear, such as whether or not Apple is committed to a 6-inch option or merely exploring it.”
Electronista reports, “SuperApple speculates that the new tablet could be released mid-year, but a more plausible release date might be the fall.”

Poppycock!
I like when first posts make me laugh.
Balderdash!
Rumor: Apple cloning midget Steve Jobs mini-me to save on having to file your fingers down to nubs to be able to use a 6″ iPad.
This is getting silly now. Is there an iPhone/iPad form factor anywhere between 2 and 12 inches that hasn’t been predicted yet…?
If at first you don’t succeed: Rumor, rumor, rumor again.
No 7″ iPad?
Rumor a 6″ iPad!
No 6″ iPad?
Rumor a 5″ iPad!
blahblahblah
How anyone can surmise this?
I’m waiting for the 17″ model, hoowa
I’m waiting for the 30″ iPad with Cinema Display
don’t you just luv it? bigger iphone, smaller iphone, bigger ipad, smaller ipad, 6″, 7″, bigger ipod touch. keep the competition guessing Steve, you’ve got them so freaked out they won’t even release their tablets and nokia teaming with msft. Stop it Steve my checks hurt and my sides are splitting.
My wife has been wanting the 6″ model for years.
Mine seems to be quite happy with the 9″…
Haha, classic!
I wouldn’t be surprised if these weren’t controlled leaks by Apple to keep the competition guessing.
Everybody talk about smaller iPad, but i think this is completely wrong. If Apple has something with 6-7 inch screen in the work it will not be an iPad. Steve told this form is not suited for tablets, but why not design bigger iPod Touch? If someone wants music, iPod Nano or Shuffle is enough, but for video, Touch is a little to small, 7″ is ideal. I’ve played with Galaxy Tab and only for watching movies on the go it was better suited than iPad – it is lighter and smaller – more portable.
Just imagine iPod Touch in XXL format. The best portable video player and the best platform for personal navigation device and game console of course.
As my girlfriend said size does matter!
NO, NO NO!!!! Didn’t anyone listen to Steve Jobs when he said a screen smaller than the current iPad’s screen makes a tablet useless?!?
Anything larger could be a new iPod touch model, like the iPod touch XL, but I seriously doubt it.
Perhaps it’s a new input device for the Mac (if it even exists at all).
Or just release the NoPad like RIMM, HP, and the rest.
test
NO
are you blocking diskgrinder?
First iPod and then iPad
so with 6″ what would the name be?
iPed? iPud?
There will not be an iOS product of a size between iPad and iPhone.
These rumors are dumber and dumber.
Sigh……………………………………………….
It’s not an iPad, it’s a Bigger iPod Touch.
Aha! It will not be an ‘iPad Nano’. It be called an iPod Touch Macro!
🙄
LMAO! iPud indeed. Then some enterprising dude will start selling skins for it.
*GROAN*
😆
IPuke!
What? No slideout keyboard?
Samsung must have lots of panels to sell. Trying to jawbone a demand for the inventory.
Doubtful. But,if true,cargo pants sales should
go through the roof.
