iPhone 5S to BioMetric Finger Print capability, Secure Cryptographic Libraries, for High Security for Personal Information, making way for Apple iWallet payment Method – No more Credit Cards to Fumble through, Card Cloning or Loss.












🔢 A sales-sheet for the Apple iPhone 5S has surfaced from a Japanese telecom. The sales-sheet claims that Apple will begin offering pre-orders on June 20, 2013 and will then launch in July. The document claims that the iPhone 5S will feature a 13-megapixel rear camera and offer the yet-to-be-announced iOS 7 OS.
🔢 Very few solid rumors regarding the iPhone 5S or iPhone 6 have surfaced at this time. Apple is expected to upgrade to iOS 7 and add a faster processor, improved retina display, NFC support, 4G, 802.11ac wireless networking, and potentially a low-cost version of its popular iPhone line.
🔢 Very Ingteresting. It had been suggested there could be three variants of the new iPhones, nicknamed the iPhone 6 Mini (some folks want a more compact phone), iPhone 6 (the next iteration with a 4″ display) and iPhone 6 XL (perhaps this model has a larger display many have been hoping for)
🔢 Pictures of iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 parts have leaked. “The pictures display the loud-speaker bracket, ear speaker bracket, vibrating motor assembly, Wi-Fi flex cable ribbon and SIM card tray.” No features were released, but there’s notable physical differences from the iPhone 5 components.
🔢 The iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 rumors point to either a sapphire-covered or capacitive touch home button. The home button is notoriously the first component to break in any of the iPhone, including the iTouch. iPhone gesture control may also be incorporated.
🔢 Apple’s purchase of AuthenTec may soon play a major part for new iPhone innovations. It was a shrewd move that CEO Tim Cook made that has been largely unnoticed. This technology provides Apple with a very Unique New feature designed to virtually eliminate passwords.
1⃣ Apple is getting closer to launching the next version of its iPhone later this year. If the Cupertino, California based company wants to keep up with Samsung, Google and others, it needs to innovate. That’s where the Tip of Your Finger literally comes in to play.
2⃣ This is NEWS. Michael Barrett, chief information security officer of PayPal, hinted that Apple and other smartphone manufacturers are going to incorporate fingerprint readers on their smartphones as part of new way to protect personal information.
🔠 Michael Barrett said: “It’s widely rumored that a large technology provider in Cupertino, California, will come out with a phone later this year that has a fingerprint reader on it.”
3⃣ This rumor has been around for a while, but it’s the first time we’ve heard an Executive at a major company indirectly confirm or validate BioMetric iPhone capability. “There is going to be a fingerprint enabled phone on the market later this year,” Barrett said during a keynote address at Interop. “Not just one, multiple.”
4⃣ Apple needs a hit feature or two on the next iPhone to show that innovation is alive and well in Cupertino. In all fairness any company in this highly competitive smartphone arena needs continual innovation to help assure market-place growth. Fingerprint scanning technology, along with an updated version of iOS 7, could be just that “extra juice” to fuel Apple’s growth.
🔠 Remember, Apple did not invent the Personal Music Player; Apple did not invent the SmartPhone; and Apple did not invent the Tablet. However, what Apple did was to totally Re-Invent these products (the iPod, iPhone and iPad) to such a High level of Quality, that it seems as though these products never existed before.
5⃣ Earlier rumors have suggested that the iPhone 5S will include several internal changes such as a faster processor, a better camera and possibly a fingerprint bio-metric scanner that makes use of Apple’s AuthenTec acquisition.
6⃣ Nothing has been confirmed at this point, but leaked photos of redesigned internal components suggest that Apple is indeed planning an overhaul of the internal geography to improve various iPhone features and to likely make room for new components as well, namely the Finger-Print Scanner and its related digitizing processors.
7⃣ Apple’s next-generation iPhone 5S is widely expected to feature the same external design as the iPhone 5, just as previous “S” upgrades have in the past. But looks can be deceiving. While Apple’s flagship iPhone for 2013 may appear externally to be the same as the iPhone 5, the phone may feature a significant internal redesign when it launches this fall.
8⃣ AuthenTec is a leading provider of mobile and network security, whose diverse product and technology offering helps protect individuals and organizations through secure networking, content and data protection, access control and strong fingerprint security. AuthenTec encryption technology, fingerprint sensors and identity management software are deployed by the leading mobile device, networking and computing companies, content and service providers, and Governments worldwide. AuthenTec’s products and technologies provide security on hundreds of millions of devices. Top tier customers include Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, Fujitsu, HBO, HP, Lenovo, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Orange, Sky, and Texas Instruments.
8⃣ BioMetrics and Finger Print identification are cool terms indeed. However, there is a lot of science that has to be packed into a small package for “Positive-Identification” to be consistent and assured in the creating of Secure Cryptographic Libraries. These graphics were abstracted from reports discussing the mathematics and logistics necessary to accurately refine and focus on the Finger Print. This process sounds really cool, but there are thousands of man-hours behind the processes necessary to assure very high quality security, to the order of tens-of-millions of combinations.
9⃣ Having personally supervised the installation very sophisticated “Finger Print and Palm Print” identification systems costing on average $250,000, to secure commercial office buildings, the user set-up is quite simple. A user that has been permitted access, simply initially swipes all 10 fingers, three to five swipes for each finger; This assures the system to record accurate, reliable, digitized images, creating a secure Cryptographic Library for this user. This user thereafter enters an 8 digit password twice; This PassWord may be used in the event this user has damaged, cut, or bruised their fingers causing the system to reject finger-print cryptographic access. What goes on internally, “behind the scenes” is amazing; The notion that this technology can be squeezed into iPhones and iPads, using a cryptographic enabled HOME button, covered with a Sapphire-Crystal-Lens for best finger-image transmission through to a CCD imager for digitizing, boggles the mind.

iPhone-5S – Competition is Wonderful for Product Users; Coversly, Competition, a Huge Challenge for product Developers.





♦ In the general scheme of things, Apple has given minor but specifically important upgrades to the ‘S’ series of iPhones (3GS, 4S). The most recent example, the iPhone 4 and 4S, look externally similar, but have a few internal components that justified the upgrade.
♦ In the iPhone 4S, you have a better camera (8MP replaced the 5MP of iPhone 4) a ore advanced lense system, and an upgraded processor. The iPhone 5S, being the 7th generation device, may have an A7 Apple processor. The iPhone 4S had a dual-core processor and clocked at 1GHz as with iPhone 4.
♦ The iPhone 5S may have a far more powerful processor than the iPhone 5. This is a revolution as Apple is not a company to dance to the market’s tune.
♦ Apple may possibly opt for another-revolutionary redesign of internal component, make them thinner, adding a finger-print scanner and processing engine, and update the lithium-polymer battery.
♦ But why battery, specifically? iOS6 and since iPhone 4, power was at issue. Apple has incrementally given a minor push-up for the battery. Also, thinking of all the upgrades that would be a part of the internal components in iPhone 5S, one would assume that power consumption is always a serious talking-point.
♦ Bottom Line. Competition is a Wonderful from the Product User perspective; Coversly, Competition is a Huge Challenge for product Developers. For Apple to maintain its edge with the fierce competition it faces, Team Apple is re-Thinking everything, every cubic millimeter, with each iteration.
♦ Perspective: Rumors. What do they mean. To some, rumors are authentic wispers of truth from people that are in the know. To others rumors are complete fiction and the food for fools; and then there’s everything inbetween. We pass the most interesting bytes for you. What do you think? Be free to comment below.

Motorola’s Brick to the iPhone 5 Journey – How did Apple Win Our Loyalty, and the Juice that Keeps Us in the Family.











1⃣ Loyalists and Devotees are strongly loyal and devoted to a single ecosystem, and consists of those using multiple devices, all of which come from a single ecosystem. Apple users represent 58% of the world’s loyalists and 56% of its devotees. Among U.S. consumers, its dominance is even greater: 59% of loyalists and 71%. Yes, 71% of Apple users are Devotees, according to a recent Forrester Survey.
2⃣ This is a tricky topic, and and the percentages earned reflect only a current snapshot. Personally our family members are Devotees to Apple products and its Ecosystem.
3⃣ Our 25 year Cellular Journey. In 1985 we were of the very few Morotola cellular users that signed on with “the Brick” which cost then about $3500 and add another $1200 for the “Car Kit” which had to be installed by a Motorola technician. The usage charge per minute were significant, about 25¢ per minute, accordingly our monthly Bellsouth Mobility bills ran into the low-thousands per month.
4⃣ Motorola’s MicroTAC 9800X Flip Phone became available in 1989, an under $800 in the pocket device became our next “mobility” cellular device. It was quite a change, in that it was truly shirt-pocket capable mobile phone. This was our first truly portable phone. Up until its release, most cellular phones were installed as car phones due to the inability to fit them into a jacket pocket.
5⃣ Motorola StarTAC became available in 1996, which was the first clamshell cellular phone. Also one of the first color display screens featured on a cell phone.
6⃣ Palm Treo 600. This was our next one of my “Got to have it” gadgets that became available in 2003. We had several Models, as Palm developed 3 subsequent models, the 650 and 700. The Treo 755p was a smartphone developed by Palm, Inc. We upgraded to it in June, 2007. The 755p the first CDMA Treo without an aerial antenna.
7⃣ Apple’s iPhone, their very first model, was released in 2007. We passed migrating to it as at the time we were thinking of migrating from the Palm 755p to Blackberry’s initial BOLD device, with all of their Apps, at the time 50 Apps perhaps. Apple did not have an App Store until say mid-2008.
8⃣ BlackBerry Bold. In 2008, this was our next mobile phone, as we left the Palm Treo line because of the lack of reliable Apps, which were coming into focus. The BOLD was Blackberry’s “middle ground” solution for those who wanted a 3G phone and a QWERTY keyboard. At the Time BB was very well known and a market leader. We upgraded to several Blackberry models ending with the BOLD in June, 2010.
9⃣ With the Blackberry devices, both of us were intellectually invested in the Blackberry user interface, having learned its use and features, and were completely delighted with everything Blackberry offered.
🔟 Apple came out with the 1st version of the iPad. We bought one for each of us in April, 2010. During the next several months we learned the Apple iOS operating environment, entered the App Store which made the iPads really a productivity, information, and entertainment device, with Words (Scrabble) the only game. In June 2010 the iphone had 225,000 Apps available (and 8,500 native Apps for the iPad).
🔢 Apple in July, 2010 released the iPhone-4. With our experience with our iPads, they being so intuitive to use, we learned quickly how everything worked relatively fast, we decided to JUMP into the world of iPhone, and never looked back. As of Sept, 2010 Apple’s App Store was populated with 250,000 Apps. We both have iPhone 5 and love the entire ecosystem, particularly with the consistency between the iPad and iPhone devices; almost all the Apps work on both devices;
🔢 The Ecosystem, with Apple’s “Family Share” activated, and with us Sharing one iTunes Apple-ID account, we only pay once for Apps. Specifically, as Marilyn or I buy an App, Music, Movies, or Books, it downloads onto your device, and also simultaneously downloads onto my iPad, or can be downloaded onto all 4 of our devices (2 iPads, and 2 iPhones), only paying once. So a $1.99 App effectively costs only 25¢/device. If Marilyn would rather not have a particular App on her iPhone that I bought, she can remove it, and none of the other devices are effected. We lots of music, books, and hundreds of Apps.
🔠 In Sum, we are firmly committed to Apple’s iPads and iPhones, as we have invested our time to become accustomed to its iOS, (which was very easy learn). We are also economically invested, with all our Apps, Books, Music, Movies, and few TV shows. Therefore it is hard to imagine migrating away from Apple’s total Ecosystem. I truly believe its “all about the Apps” as these software programs developed by thens-of-thousands of independent developers world-wide, really make the iPhone and iPad effective portable productivity tools.
🔠 One More Thing. A message to Apple, remember we migrated from Blackberry, before it we migrated from Palm, and before it we migrated from Motorola, over the past 25 years; therefore don’t become arrogant or complacent with your efforts towards improving the overall user experiences; Remember all us that have iPhones and iPads, migrated to Apple from another place.
🔠 Perspective: Rumors. What do they mean. To some, rumors are authentic wispers of truth from people that are in the know. To others rumors are complete fiction and the food for fools; and then there’s everything inbetween. We pass the most interesting bytes for you. What do you think? Be free to comment below.

Apple Wins the Loyalty and Devoted Tests, with over 70% score according to a large Forrester Survey. According to a Forrester survey released this week, the majority of smartphone users (85% worldwide, 88% in the U.S.) have less loyalty to a particular mobile computing ecosystem than expected. An ecosystem is the nexus of devices, software, services, and muscle memory that tie a user to a product line.










1⃣ Among those users who show the most loyalty is with Apple (AAPL), who dominates in this category; No big surprise there.
2⃣ What is surprising, is what “loyalty” looks like, when measured quantitatively and displayed in pie charts at left.
3⃣ The Bar-Graph represents entire user population, all brands and ecosystems combined.
4⃣ Devoted Pie-Chart: shows the 6% who are actually “devoted” to a particular mobile ecosystem, who have a high degree of loyalty to the product, brand and ecosystem.
5⃣ Loyalist Pie Chart: shows the 9% who are merely “loyal” who have moderate or divided loyalty. This group is made up of those using multiple devices, a majority of which (but not all) are tied to a single ecosystem.
6⃣ To take the full measure of ecosystem devotion, Forrester’s analyst, Charles Golvin, divided the user population into three groups: The Free Radicals, who have little to no loyalty. This group consists of two subgroups: those who own exactly one type of device and those who own multiple devices, all of which come from a different ecosystem.
7⃣ The Loyalists, who have moderate or divided loyalty. This group is made up of those using multiple devices, a majority of which, but not all are tied to a single ecosystem.
8⃣ The Devotees, who are strongly loyal to a single ecosystem. This segment consists of those using multiple devices, all of which come from a single ecosystem. As the pie chart shows, Apple users represent 58% of the world’s loyalists and 56% of its devotees. Among U.S. consumers, its dominance is even greater: 59% of loyalists and 71%. Repeat, this is not a typo… 71% of Apple users are Devotees.
9⃣ Microsoft (MSFT) is a contender in the devotee category (44% global info workers, 27% U.S. consumer), likely because Windows is still has a firm grip on 85% of the workplace PC Computer market.
🔟 Google (GOOG), thanks to Android’s majority share of the global smartphone market and growing share in tablets, has its loyalists, 17% globally and 10% in the U.S. But until Chromebooks catch on, the number of Google devotees will remain, in Golvin’s words, “vanishingly small.”
🔢 This is a tricky topic, and shows only a current snapshot. Personally our family members are Devotees to Apple products and its Ecosystem. Here is our story. During the past Decade, Marilyn and I were early adopters of smartphones, starting with Palm Palm Pre. In the mid-1980′s we were Morotola cellular users with “the Brick” which cost then about $3500; then onto the Motorola Flip Phone, an under $1000 in the pocket device; then onto several Palm devices ending with Palm Pre. Then onto Blackberry with several devices ending with its BOLD in June, 2010.
🔢 With the Blackberry devices, both of us were intellectually invested in the Blackberry user interface, having learned its use and features, and were completely delighted with everything Blackberry offered.

U.S. Department of Defense Approves iOS 6 Devices for Military Networks, $50 Million saved in Flight Manuals and Fuel Savings + Air Force Awards Apple $9.36 Million Contract to buy 18,000 iPads







1⃣ Following a report from earlier this month indicating that the U.S. Department of Defense was preparing to approve Apple devices running iOS 6 for use on military networks, Bloomberg reported today, May 16, 2013 , that the DOD has officially issued the authorization, opening the door for greater use of Apple’s products.
2⃣ The Defense Department said in a statement today that it has approved the use of Cupertino, California-based Apple’s products running a version of the iOS 6 mobile platform.
3⃣ The decision eventually may spur a fight for a market long dominated by BlackBerry. The Pentagon on May 2 approved Samsung’s devices, as well as BlackBerry 10 smartphones and BlackBerry PlayBook tablets.
4⃣ The report notes that out of more than 600,000 mobile devices used by the Defense Department, presently only about 41,000 of those are Apple products, most of those not connected directly to the military’s networks. With the new approvals, Apple and Samsung are expected to significantly eat into BlackBerry’s present 75% share of mobile devices within the agency.
5⃣ As noted in the report earlier this month, the Department of Defense’s approval of iOS 6 devices for sensitive applications is expected to have impact beyond the military, with other businesses requiring strict security standards becoming more likely to embrace Apple’s products.
6⃣ Pentagon approval for iOS 6 devices comes just as The Street reports that the U.S. Air Force is expecting to save more than $50 million over ten years following last year’s decision to replace thousands of pages of flight manuals with iPads.
7⃣ By removing the Weight of all that paper, [Air Mobility Command] will capture about $750,000 in fuel savings annually, just based off the decreased weight, said [electronic flight bag program manager Major Brian] Moritz.
8⃣ Apple is awarded a $9.36 million Air Force contract for 18,000 iPads, awarded in 2012, will reduce the weight on a C-5 transport plane by 490 pounds. The iPad investment will save as much as $5 million per year in just the printing costs, by doing away with the paper-based manuals.
9⃣ By removing the need to Print and Distribute thousands of Flight Manuals, equates to an even greater cost saving. This Printing and Distribution cost equates to just over $5 million a year, noted Moritz. “With fuel savings, it comes out to $5.7 million annually in pure cost. When you look at $5.7 million a year, over 10 years, that’s well over $50 million.”

1⃣ iPad 5 Slated to have Cryptographic BioMetric Finger Print capability, be 15% Thinner, Narrower, and 25% Lighter Than iPad 4






2⃣ The 5th generation iPad rumor mill has gathered significantly over the past few weeks; and reported a few days ago suggested that the iPad 5 release date could be as soon as early June, 2013. The increased rumors and attention may be warranted.
3⃣ iPad 5 to also have BioMetric Finger Print capability creating secure Cryptographic Libraries to secure Personal Information, making way for best “Tablet” security consistent with Apple’s new iPhone 5S to have similar cryptographic security.
4⃣ Apple’s purchase of AuthenTec may soon play a major part for new iPad and iPhone innovations. It was a shrewd move that CEO Tim Cook made that has been largely unnoticed. This technology provides Apple with a very Unique New feature designed to virtually eliminate passwords. BTW, AuthenTec was a major supplier to Samsung.
5⃣ Nothing has been confirmed at this point, but leaked photos of redesigned internal components suggest that Apple is indeed planning an overhaul of the internal geography to improve various iPad features and to likely make room for new components as well, namely the Finger-Print Scanner and its related digitizing processors.
6⃣ Apple’s next-generation iPad 5 is widely expected to feature the similar external design as the iPad mini. Aside from the iPad external shape and edges change, the iPad 5 may feature a significant internal redesign when it launches this fall.
7⃣ AuthenTec is a leading provider of mobile and network security, whose diverse product and technology offering helps protect individuals and organizations through secure networking, content and data protection, access control and strong fingerprint security. AuthenTec encryption technology, fingerprint sensors and identity management software are deployed by the leading mobile device, networking and computing companies, content and service providers, and Governments worldwide. AuthenTec’s products and technologies provide security on hundreds of millions of devices.
8⃣ BioMetrics and Finger Print identification are cool terms indeed. However, there is a lot of science that has to be packed into a small package for “Positive-Identification” to be consistent and assured in the creating of Secure Cryptographic Libraries. These graphics were abstracted from reports discussing the mathematics and logistics necessary to accurately refine and focus on the Finger Print. This process sounds really cool, but there are thousands of man-hours behind the processes necessary to assure very high quality security, to the order of tens-of-millions of combinations.
9⃣ Having personally supervised the installation very sophisticated “Finger Print and Palm Print” identification systems costing on average $250,000, to secure commercial office buildings, the user set-up is quite simple. A user that has been permitted access, simply initially swipes all 10 fingers, three to five swipes for each finger; This assures the system to record accurate, reliable, digitized images, creating a secure Cryptographic Library for this user. This user thereafter enters an 8 digit password twice; This PassWord may be used in the event this user has damaged, cut, or bruised their fingers causing the system to reject finger-print cryptographic access. What goes on internally, “behind the scenes” is amazing; The notion that this technology can be squeezed into iPhones and iPads, using a cryptographic enabled HOME button, covered with a Sapphire-Crystal-Lens for best finger-image transmission through to a CCD imager for digitizing, boggles the mind.
🔟 KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who tends only to speak out with reliable information, has chimed into the debate once more, and although his August-September release bracket refutes those earlier presumptions, Kuo does believe the next Apple tablet will be dramatically thinner and lighter than the 4th and 3rd Retina iPad generations.
🔠 Kuo estimates the iPad 5 will be 15% thinner and 25% lighter than the current flagship, a notion which falls in line with suggestions of the popuar iPad mini form factor. In fact, Kuo goes on to mention that the next full-size iPad will feature thinner bezels along the longer edges as per the iPad mini, which will in turn allow the device to be slightly narrower.
🔠 Kuo foresees the next iPad measuring in at around 7.5-8.0mm in depth, which is a full 15% thinner than iPad 4. At 500 grams, it takes a quarter of the weight off the current flagship, and although that may not sound like a big number, in tech terms, it is a very profitable drop in bulk.
🔠 Kuo mentions the next iPad will pack in an A7X processor, although predicts the cameras to remain largely unchanged. The 5-megapixel iSight of the iPad 4 is no great shakes, but then again, with very few people use their iPads for taking snaps, it makes sense for Apple to concentrate on some of the more important issues with its market-leading slab.
🔠 The next generation of iPad looks to be the biggest leap since the third-gen brought that Retina display, and with the iPad mini also set to see that very feature later on in the year, Apple’s continued dominance in tablet space will be difficult for rivaling vendors to falter.

iPad-mini Slated to have Cryptographic BioMetric Finger Print capability, Retina Display 2048-by-1536 resolution at 324ppi, Apple’s dual-core A6X processor, and 8MP Camera.









1⃣ The 2nd generation iPad-mini rumor mill has gathered significantly over the past few weeks; and reported a few days ago suggested that the iPad-mini v2 release date could be as soon as June, 2013. The increased rumors and attention may be warranted.
2⃣ iPad-mini v2 to also have BioMetric Finger Print capability creating secure Cryptographic Libraries to secure Personal Information, making way for best “Tablet” security consistent with Apple’s new iPhone 5S to have similar cryptographic security.
3⃣ Apple’s purchase of AuthenTec may soon play a major part for new iPad and iPhone innovations. It was a shrewd move that CEO Tim Cook made that has been largely unnoticed. This technology provides Apple with a very Unique New feature designed to virtually eliminate passwords. BTW, AuthenTec was a major supplier to Samsung.
4⃣ Nothing has been confirmed at this point, but leaked photos of redesigned internal components suggest that Apple may be planning an overhaul of the internal geography to improve various iPad features and to likely make room for new components as well, namely the Finger-Print Scanner and its related digitizing processors.
5⃣ Apple’s iPad-mini v2 is widely expected to feature the samr or similar external design as the iPad mini. Aside from the iPad-mini external shape and edges change, the iPad-mini v2 may feature a significant internal redesign when it launches this fall.
6⃣ BioMetrics and Finger Print identification are cool terms indeed. However, there is a lot of science that has to be packed into a small package for “Positive-Identification” to be consistent and assured in the creating of Secure Cryptographic Libraries. These graphics were abstracted from reports discussing the mathematics and logistics necessary to accurately refine and focus on the Finger Print. This process sounds really cool, but there are thousands of man-hours behind the processes necessary to assure very high quality security, to the order of tens-of-millions of combinations.
🔢 It is our Guess that all iPads, iPad-minis, iPhones, and likely MAC Books will eventually contain BioMetrics, Finger Print, Secure Cryptographic identification scanning capabilities, giving a very high level of security, exceeding the secuity offered by a random 8 digit password.
7⃣ Having personally supervised the installation very sophisticated “Finger Print and Palm Print” identification systems costing on average $250,000, to secure commercial office buildings, the user set-up is quite simple. A user that has been permitted access, simply initially swipes all 10 fingers, three to five swipes for each finger; This assures the system to record accurate, reliable, digitized images, creating a secure Cryptographic Library for this user. This user thereafter enters an 8 digit password twice; This PassWord may be used in the event this user has damaged, cut, or bruised their fingers causing the system to reject finger-print cryptographic access. What goes on internally, “behind the scenes” is amazing; The notion that this technology can be squeezed into iPhones and iPads, using a cryptographic enabled HOME button, covered with a Sapphire-Crystal-Lens for best finger-image transmission through to a CCD imager for digitizing, boggles the mind.
Apple is expected to debut a new iPhone, iPad and iPad mini tablet later in 2013. Previous rumors have suggested that the company’s popular 7.9″ tablet would have a variety of improvements over the previous model. According to MobiLeaks, the second-generation iPad mini will be equipped with a number of improvements.
7⃣ iPad Mini v2 will have the Retina display with 2048 x 1536 resolution that equates to 324 pixels per inch. Having this quantity of pixels (the same pixel count as in the iPad v4 with its 9.7″ display) squeezed into a mini 7.9″ diagonal display, will render a very, very high resolution appearing image, nearly the same (324ppi vs. 326ppi) pixel-density as we are experiencing in the present day iPhone 5 display.
8⃣ iPad Mini v2 will feature Apple’s dual-core A6X processor, similar processor housed in the iPad v4.
9⃣ iPad Mini v2 will feature an improved Cameras, reportedly to be upgraded with an 8-megapixel sensor on the rear-camera and a 2-megapixel sensor on the front-camera. This apparently may be the same Camera and lens components that exists within the iPhone 5. Storage options also the same as with the iPhone 5: 16BG as standard, or 32GB, or 64GB as additional cost options.
🔟 iPad Mini v2 will have a marginal thickness increase from 7.2mm to 7.5mm. This very, very small increase is hardly worth mentioning, as 0.3mm represents the thickness of the diameters of 3 or 4 human hairs, each measuring on average 0.100mm (which roughly equates to 0.004″). This small change may be attributed to more robust aluminium anodization surface layers.

🔢 iPad Mini v2 is expected to be release by Apple sometime in the 3rd quarter of 2013.
🔢 iPad Mini v2. Personally, I will definitely be at Boca Raton’s Apple Store, waiting on the line for this one!
