"The 9.7-inch iPad with mock-up of a 7.85-inch version\nFORTUNE &amp;#8212; If Apple is indeed planning to unveil a purse-size version of the iPad on Oct. 17, as at least one rumor has it, we would expect to be hearing leaks to that effect from Apple&amp;#8217;s \n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAAPL\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t Asian supply chain.\nAs if on cue, the \n  Wall Street Journal\n&amp;#8216;s Lorraine Luk, citing unnamed people &amp;#8220;with knowledge of the situation,&amp;#8221; reported Wednesday that\u00A0South Korea&amp;#8217;s\u00A0LG Display and Taiwan&amp;#8217;s\u00A0AU Optronics\u00A0Corp.\u00A0began mass production of the LCD screens for the new device in September &amp;#8212; just in time to deliver product in late October or early November.\nAccording to two of Luk&amp;#8217;s sources, the\u00A0smaller tablet will have a 7.85-inch liquid-crystal display with a lower resolution than the third-generation iPad that came out in March. That tablet, like its two predecessors, has a 9.7-inch screen."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
