iLounge has been the source of lots of exciting new rumours about the iPhone 5, iPad mini and iPod nano, with news from its source that Apple is planning to announce all three on September 12. Following on from the earlier report regarding the launch of the new devices, iLounge now has further information, specifically about the iPad mini, which it says might even have its own launch event, and which might be released as late as November. Although iLounge argued with its source that a release date so close to the end of the year, and in November in particular, is unusual for Apple, the source apparently was insistent that a November release date is a possibility for the iPad mini. The source also told iLounge that Apple is planning to release mini Smart Cover and Smart Cases for the iPad mini.
