The Next Web is reporting that the rumored iPad Mini event scheduled for October 23rd will have a heavy focus on iBooks. The iPad Mini will be aimed at smaller tablets like the Kindle Fire, that are generally used to consume content including books and movies.
So, they will sell the iPad as a productivity device vs. the iPad mini as a media consumption device. Maybe they'll call it the iReader or iPod XL.
