iFixit has posted its teardown of the new iPad mini.

While making our yearly October 31st rounds, we came across something interesting: a brand new iPad Mini! All hopped up on sugar, we eagerly tore into Apple's first small tablet. Smaller than an iPad, larger than an iPod, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, we'd heard mighty claims about the Mini. It was finally time to crack it open and take a look for ourselves.

Highlights:
● The Mini is the first handheld iDevice to house stereo speakers.
● Model Number: A1432
● This round of glass removal was easier than previous ones, requiring less patience and a near-zero fear-factor.
● This is a 3.72 V, 16.5 Whr, 4400 mAh battery.
● Apple once again went with Samsung in its display manufacturing.
