The holidays arrive nine months early this week as Apple is expected to unveil the company’s third-generation iPad at a special event at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco on Wednesday at 10 a.m. PST. Besides the iPad 3, what else will Apple reveal on Wednesday? Here are some guesses.
With Apple’s iPad 3 event just days away, attention now turns to what to expect from the tech giant later in 2012. While much of the focus going forward will almost certainly be on the next-generation iPhone and possible iTV, another new product may soon be available: A 7-inch “iPad mini.”

The iTunes Store is an entertainment mecca to purchase most things digital. Unfortunately, missing among the apps, music and books is the ability to buy and stream TV content. However, Apple is trying to make sure that changes before Christmastime, according to The New York Post.
Ever since Apple began sending out invitations to the company’s iPad event earlier this week, the blogosphere has been in a lather on whether the third-generation tablet would include a physical home button like each of its predecessors. The reason for the chatter was Apple’s invitation included a photo of what looked like an iPad 3 without a visible button, which would obviously be big news.
The latest iPad 3 rumor doesn’t actually have to do with Apple’s upcoming tablet, but rather its predecessor, the iPad 2. Along with a third-generation iPad, Apple is expected to launch an 8 GB iPad 2 at next week’s iPad event in San Francisco. In addition, the same source believes Apple is prepping a smaller iPad to be released in late 2012.
