One of the worst-kept secrets in tech
has been confirmed: Apple will hold an
event October 23 in San Jose,
California, at which the company is
widely expected to unveil a smaller,
cheaper version of its popular iPad. Apple sent e-mails to members of the
press Tuesday that read simply, "We've
got a little more to show you. Please
join us for an invitation-only event at
the California Theatre in San Jose on
October 23 at 10:00 a.m." Unlike last month's invite to the
unveiling of the iPhone 5, which
contained a not-so-subtle "5" in its
graphic, Tuesday's colorful rainbow
design offered few hints about what
Apple might announce, although the word "little" could be a clue. Numerous news reports suggest the
secretive company will introduce a 7-
or 8-inch version of its popular tablet,
which currently has a nearly 10-inch
screen when measured diagonally. Apple has not confirmed any of these
reports, of course. Nor have they
revealed what such a mythical device
may be called, which hasn't stopped
the tech media from labeling it the
"iPad Mini." Other details about the rumored tablet
remain vague, although some analysts
predict it will not have the high-
definition "retina display" that's on the
current iPad. Most observers believe it
will be priced under $300. A smaller iPad would allow Apple to
compete head-to-head with rival small
tablets, such as Amazon's Kindle Fire
and Google's Nexus 7, that have
weakened Apple's domination of the
tablet market. Those devices are priced in the $200
range, while Apple's current iPad
lineup starts at $399 for last year's iPad
2 and $499 for the third-generation
iPad released in March. Tuesday's Apple invite came the same
day prices were revealed for
Microsoft's upcoming line of Surface
tablets, which will start at $499 and hit
stores October 26. Some reports also say Apple will
introduce other new products at the
event, including a 13-inch MacBook
Pro with "retina display" and an
upgraded Mac Mini.

Taliban gunmen in Pakistan shot and
seriously wounded on Tuesday a 14-
year-old schoolgirl who rose to fame
for speaking out against the militants,
authorities said. Malala Yousufzai was shot in the head
and neck when gunmen fired on her
school bus in the Swat valley,
northwest of the capital, Islamabad.
Two other girls were also wounded,
police said. Yousufzai became famous for
speaking out against the Pakistani
Taliban at a time when even the
government seemed to be appeasing
the hardline Islamists. The government agreed to a ceasefire
with the Taliban in Swat in early 2009,
effectively recognizing insurgent
control of the valley whose lakes and
mountains had long been a tourist
attraction. The Taliban set up courts, executed
residents and closed girls' schools,
including the one that Yousufzai
attended. A documentary team filmed
her weeping as she explained her
ambition to be a doctor. "My friend came to me and said, 'for
God's sake, answer me honestly, is
our school going to be attacked by
the Taliban?'," Yousufzai, then 11,
wrote in a blog published by the BBC. "During the morning assembly we
were told not to wear colorful clothes
as the Taliban would object." The army launched an offensive and
retook control of Swat later that year,
and Yousufzai later received the
country's highest civilian award. She
was also nominated for international
awards for child activists. Since then, she has received
numerous threats. On Tuesday,
gunmen arrived at her school and
asked for her by name, witnesses told
police. Yousufzai was shot when she
came out of class and went to a bus. Taliban spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan
said his group was behind the
shooting. "She was pro-West, she was speaking
against Taliban and she was calling
President Obama her ideal leader,"
Ehsan said by telephone from an
undisclosed location. "She was young but she was
promoting Western culture in Pashtun
areas," he said, referring the main
ethnic group in northwest Pakistan
and southern and eastern
Afghanistan. Most members of the Taliban come from conservative
Pashtun tribes. Doctors were struggling to save
Yousufzai, said Lal Noor, a doctor at
the Saidu Sharif Teaching Hospital in
the Swat valley's main town of
Mingora.
