“China Economic News Service reports on a research note from Citigroup analyst J.T. Hsu claiming that Apple is working with Taiwanese chip manufacturer TSMC as its sole supplier for future quad-core chips based on more efficient 20-nanometer processes. The timeline shared by Hsu suggests that the quad-core chips could make their way into products such as the iPad in 2014.” — “MacRumors” (www.macrumors.com)

“Some third-party accessory makers are so prepared for Apple’s rumored 7.85-inch iPad that they already have the products boxed and ready to go, before the device is even made official.” — “AppleInsider” (www.appleinsider.com)

“We heard yesterday from some very reliable sources that Apple would be holding an event to launch the iPad mini later this month; October 23 to be more precise.
