Apple Officially Announces October 22nd Media Event – Likely iPad-Related

As expected, based on previous reports, Apple has officially confirmed that they will be holding a media event on October 22nd. The company is widely expected to unveil their next-generation iPad and iPad mini lines, as well as potentially discuss a variety of announcements related to the Mac, including a release date for OS X Mavericks.

As first reported by John Paczkowski of AllThingsD:

Apple this morning distributed invitations to a special event at which it’s expected to unveil the next iterations of the iPad and iPad mini. And it’s to be held on October 22 […]

“We still have a lot to cover,” reads the text of the invite. And indeed, Apple does. As I noted last week, the focal point of Apple’s gathering next week will be the latest updates to the company’s iPad line, but the new Mac Pro and OS X Mavericks will likely get some stage time as well.

The event will be held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. Are  you all ready for a new round of Apple announcements? Ready or not, here they come!
