[edit] History
On October 16, 2012, Apple announced a media event scheduled for October 23 at the California Theatre in San Jose, California.[7][8] The company did not predisclose the subject of the event, but it was widely expected to be the iPad Mini. On the day of the event, Apple CEO Tim Cook introduced a new version of MacBook family and new generations of the MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, and the iMac before the fourth-generation iPad and the iPad Mini.[9]
[edit] Features
[edit] Software
The iPad Mini shipped with iOS 6.0.1.[citation needed] It can act as a hotspot with some carriers, sharing its Internet connection over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB,[10] and also access the App Store, a digital application distribution platform for iOS that is developed and maintained by Apple. The service allows users to browse and download applications from the iTunes Store that were developed with Xcode and the iOS SDK and were published through Apple. From the App Store, GarageBand, iMovie, iPhoto, and the iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, and Numbers) are available.[11]The iPad Mini comes with several pre-installed applications, including Siri, Safari, Mail, Photos, Video, Music, iTunes, App Store, Maps, Notes, Calendar, Game Center, Photo Booth, and Contacts.[12] Like all iOS devices, the iPad can sync content and other data with a Mac or PC using iTunes, although iOS 5 and later can be managed and backed up with iCloud. Although the tablet is not designed to make telephone calls over a cellular network, users can use a headset or the built-in speaker and microphone and place phone calls over Wi-Fi or cellular using a VoIP application, such as Skype.[13] The device has dictation, using the same voice recognition technology as the iPhone 4S. The user speaks and the iPad types what they say on the screen provided that the iPad is connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network.[10]
The device has an optional iBooks application, which displays books and other ePub-format content downloaded from the iBookstore.[14] Several major book publishers including Penguin Books, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster and Macmillan have committed to publishing books for the device.[15] Despite being a direct competitor to both the Amazon Kindle and Barnes & Noble Nook,[16] both Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble offer e-reader apps for the iPad.[17][18]
Accessories

The Smart Cover,
introduced with the iPad 2, is a screen protector that magnetically
attaches to the face of the iPad. A smaller version is now available for
iPad Mini. The cover has three folds, which allow it to convert into a
stand, held together by magnets.[19] Smart Covers have a microfiber bottom that cleans the front of the iPad, and wakes up the unit when the cover is removed. It comes in six colors of polyurethane, including the (PRODUCT) RED version, only available from the Apple Online Store.[20][21]sumber:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPad_Mini
