The much rumored iPad mini will be produced in Brazil; although, testing to collect data for the cutting machine has already been done in China, reports Macotakara.

Citing a 'reliable source' the production phase for the new iPad will begin in September and the tablet will ship in time for the holidays. The iPad mini appears to have a 3G model; however, their sources says not all carriers are found in the list of resellers.

This source, who seems to look a prototype, told that new tablet (iPad mini?) had same height with Nexus 7 and slight larger width. Even though front projection size is larger than rivals, thickness of that new tablet is considered to be thinner than current most thinnest tablet Kindle Fire, and to be similar with iPod touch (4th generation) by this source.

Both the WSJ and Bloomberg have also reported that Apple intends to launch an iPad mini this year.

3G, yet another reason why this idea of a "mini" translates into a cheapening of the iOS product line, and will ultimately lead to a lessening of profits for Apple. That's why Steve Jobs fought so hard against the typical fragmentation of products, and why his replacements are so anxious to try out everything they learned in Business School. Sorry, but I have NO interest in such a crappy product, that is, if any of these 'reliable reports' are really worth a shit!
