hey everyone welcome to the inside scoop I'm cnet's cara de Savoie joined by senior writer Shara Tipton and char Apple sent out their invitation today an event next Thursday October sixteenth tell us about the invitation itself apple in its typical coy fashion didn't really give a lot of details in the invite it said it's been way too long and then there was a logo of kind of the top of an apple which is very similar to what they did with the iphone 6 invite in that one it was silver and this one it's rainbow colors which make people think that maybe it has something to do with Max okay and what about the way too long part way too long I mean who knows it could be there are some max that they haven't updated in a couple years you know I think the mac mini hasn't been updated since 2012 which in the world of technology is an eternity you know it's very old processors you know it's really in need of a refresh so besides the Macintoshes themselves everyone's expecting an iPad announcement or update tell us more about that yeah we're definitely going to see iPads here there are thoughts that there will be a gold ipad version which could attract you know a different range of buyers it's also what they did with the iphone with the iphone 5s as well sure we also could see potentially a bigger screen ipad but it's looking more likely like that will be next year as opposed to this year okay and these ipads could also have the fingerprint sensor yeah for sure yeah they definitely need to be updated with with the new processor so apple's new a8 processor the fingerprint sensor will probably see some Apple pay capabilities integrated in these it's more likely that people are going to use their phone when you're going to pay for something but if you're someone who doesn't necessarily have a phone upgrade you may want to you know try it out with your iPad there's also a lot of people who carry iPads around and are taking pictures and doing other things with that true so we first heard about Apple pay last month in September at the iphone event we do you expect more details like a release date at this event the the Apple pay is launching this month so we're going to hear something about when that's coming out they'll probably talk about it at the vet at the event a little bit and potentially even show it off some more it's really unclear exactly when that's happening but it's this month okay and going back to the Macintoshes earlier in the summer WWDC we learned about Yosemite the operating system do you expect more details to come out next week you somebody is a definite at this event we're probably going to hear about the release which could either be that day or shortly thereafter we're going to see a lot more of the features see how it works with the iphone and the new iPads and you somebody is definitely something we're going to see and finally where is this event being held the events being held on Apple's campus so that's down in Cupertino it's a much smaller venue than what they did for the iphone 6 that that kind of signals how big of an event it is for Apple so by not having you know 3,000 people in an auditorium it's you know it's a much more low key event for them probably no rock stars either probably no rock stars thanks so much hardship can we'll be following closely i'm cara de su boy thanks for watching the inside scoop
