A rumor has been circulating around the internet that the new iPad Mini might be also be skimping on its storage capacity.  According to the rumor, the smaller version, unlike its larger counter-part, would only come with a maximum hard-disk size of only 8 Gb; less than half that of the a standard iPad which ranges from 16 Gb to a full 64 Gb.  Luckily, this is only a rumor, so there's no need to get up in arms just yet.  However, we will keep you posted as new info arrives.

"A smaller version of the iPad will be less expensive and offer less storage than Apple's full-sized model, but will have the same resolution, according to a new report.

Citing a previously reliable source, iMore today adds to the handful of existing iPad mini rumors, with something a little different.

The outlet says such a device is very much in the works and will come in around the $200 to $250 price range. On the lower end, that's less than half the price of Apple's current entry-level iPad model, and $150 to $200 less than the 16GB second-generation model that Apple still sells. That would also overlap with the pricing of Apple's iPod Touch line, which starts out at $199 and tops out at $399 for the 64GB model."
