Apple will unveil a new, smaller version of its wildly popular iPad in October after the release of the latest version of its iPhone next month, the All Things Digital website reported on Sunday.

'Only after the next-generation iPhone is out the door and on sale will Apple announce the smaller iPad it's been working on,' it said.
