Apple will reportedly produce four million iPad mini units per month starting in September to prepare for a year-end launch, reports DigiTimes.

Rumors are circulating in the IT market that Apple will launch its 7.85-inch iPad in October with a thinner screen frame to allow the device to feature a bigger display area than other competing products and will also feature a resolution similar to that of iPad 2.

The sources pointed out that the supply chain already started supplying a small volume of 7.85-inch iPad in June with a monthly volume at around several hundreds of thousand.

Recent rumors have predicted that the smaller tablet could feature a large iPod touch style design.

I keep seeing the reports of the iPad mini coming out this year, but why would Apple release an iPad (even if it's a smaller one) separately from the original? It only makes sense that Apple would release an iPad mini at the same time as original. I guess they could be trying to get it out the door in time for the holiday season and then the 2nd gen iPad mini could be pushed back to release the same time as the regular iPad.
