2013-10-21
hello and welcome to inside scoop I'm stupid aah straining me a senior writer for Cena Josh Lowensohn Josh thanks for being with us yeah my pleasure doing something a little different today we are in a specific location at the yerba buena center for the arts because tomorrow at this time what's gonna be happening here Kaos organized chaos you'll be a part of it yes we're gonna be there in for us we got a few people going inside right here it's gonna be ground zero for probably new iPads a new Macs and some new software too okay let's talk specifics then let's hit the iPads first we're probably going to see not a different size of the ipad but some finer finely tuned features yeah yeah the big expectation is that will see a bigger iPad that looks a lot more like the ipad mini with rounded corners and thinner kind of that at portrait style where the edges aren't as thin right also what we're expecting is a retina iPad Mini yeah this is the thing we didn't get with the first generation I've had you know we had that first kind of 1024 x 7 80 kind of displayed it looked okay but it wasn't quite up to par with some of the other devices so we're expecting something very sharp and if you're excited about that ipad mini with the retina display you should probably act quickly if they announced it because there's another report that's surfaced from their having a couple of reports floating around that suggest it it's gonna be a limited supply the same kind of thing happened with some older products that have come out with retina displays where they were kind of hard to get at first right I don't think we have a good indication that but the fact that they're launching that probably a long side an updated version or older version of the ipad mini means it could be sure yeah there's still a question mark about whether or not we'll see a fingerprint sensor carrying over from the iphone yeah and and reports are going to diverging on that some suggested that will only see it on the full-size iPad not the mini um I kind of think that if they are gonna put it on the ipad it'll come the mini too cuz that's really device that people carry around with them right and that's the kind of thing where you do want to pass word on that it just makes a lot of sense yep okay and it's not just iPads tomorrow though they're probably gonna cover some other ground because this is the last Apple event before the holiday season kicks into gear yes and I max her almost a sure that we got the mac pro which is their big weird tube like desktop the Darth Vader's right we still have a price or release date on that we're probably gonna get both those things tomorrow and some of the people I talk to you is on the analyst suggestion it could be like twenty eight hundred dollars to start even higher so this is definitely gonna be a high high-end machine the question is if Apple price it down cheaper and it's not just going to be hardware there will be some software news to possibly yeah we're expecting a full price and release day for mavericks which is the next version of OS 10 I think we're also expecting some new ilife software and I work software for the iOS some of the details about that leaked out over the weekend so I expect Apple up they pulled those things this week all right you will be inside you'll be live blogging the whole thing so we won't miss a single detail live photos and videos it all starts at 9am with a live video show okay so just go to cnet for more information josh thanks for chatting with us absolutely for inside scoop im sue need us thanks for watching
