Mostly an iPad event but I'm most interested in the rMBP been waiting since June, also hoping for a Mac Mini refresh and I'll bag one of those too :D
 
AppleInsider posted up an article about Apples current stock inventory from indirect channels:

I wonder if we'll see a retina iPad mini and a price reduction on the current mini's?

I was planning to upgrade to a retina originally, but I'm pretty happy w/ my mini as it is so I'll probably skip the next generation at least.
 
I don't know how legit these are but it's apparently the leaked specs of the rMBP from a post on the Chinese forum weiphone:

13" rMBP:

All 13" models have 4th generation dual-core Intel i5/i7, integrated GPU (Intel Iris 5100), PCIe flash and 802.11ac.

CPU (GHz)/RAM (GB)/Flash (GB)
2.4 i5-4258U/4/128
2.4 i5-4258U/8/256
2.4 i5-4258U/8/512
2.8 i7-4558U/8/512
2.8 i7-4558U/16/1TB (BTO)


15" rMBP:

All 15" models have 4th generation quad-core Intel i7, PCIe flash and 802.11ac.

CPU (GHz)/RAM (GB)/Flash (GB)/Graphics
2.0 i7-4750HQ/8/256/Iris Pro 5200 --(i7 4750HQ confirmed in 2nd source)
2.3 i7-4850HQ/16/512/Iris Pro 5200 + Nvidia GT750M with 2GB vRAM
2.6 i7-4960HQ/16/1TB/Iris Pro 5200 + Nvidia GT750M with 2GB vRAM (BTO)

The low-end rMBP 15" with iGPU is intended to replace the current non-retina MBP 15".

Product numbers:

15": ME293/ME294/ME8*4
13": ME8*4/ME8*5/ME8*6/ME8*7

Do Apple always announce events on their main page like this? If not, then yeah this could be really big!

Either way, I'm looking forward to it but my bank balance certainly isn't.
