The Apple
iPad is coming. And if the latest rumours are true, both the 9.7” Apple iPad 5 and
the 7.9” Apple iPad Mini it seems, are slated to get a new colour makeover akin
to its smartphone parent, the Apple iPhone.
This
according to the blog of noted Australian Blogger Sonny Dickson blog in the article “Alleged
images show iPad 5 in Silver, space gray” published September 25, 2013 5:18
AM PDT by Lance Whitney, CNET News and “iPad
Mini 2 to come in gold and space gray, claim latest leaks”, published

News!
According
to his website this time “Hands-On
With the iPad 5 in Space Gray And Silver!” published September 25, 2013 By
Sonny Dickson, Sonny Dickson, the Apple
iPad 5 looks to be getting the same treatment, with the pictures showing
casting that are Silver and Space Grey in colour.
But
who is, Sonny Dickson?
Apparently
he’s an Australian teenager living with his mom and dad in suburban Melbourne and has a healthy love
affair with expensive gadgets and a curious desire to work at Apple someday in
the future. He came to fame when he posted early images of the Apple iPhone 5S
and the Apple iPhone 5C that suggested that they was going to be a Gold Version
and a Multi-coloured version.
Here
are a few screenshots from his website (sorry can’t copy his pics)! He’s the
secret to my predicting capabilities over the years, going back as far as 2007!
His
story is backed up by French site NowhereElse
which also claims that the Apple iPad 5 may appears in October 2011 in Space
Grey as stated in “Leaked
photos show 'space gray' iPad Mini model”, published September 18, 2013
9:22 AM PDT by Josh Lowensohn, CNET News. Apparently
both of them know something hat the rest of us mere mortals in the West don’t
know: Chinese Factory Workers.
His secret sauce?
He’s an expert at sniffing out the truth from pictures sent to him.
He’s been having been getting pictures of this nature for quite some time from
Chinese Sources who purchase the parts directly from factory-line
workers and resell them for profit for between $250 to $500. He then contacts
them via the Internet and negotiates a price for pictures of the parts when he
then posts and makes revenue via advertising on his hugely poplar website named
after himself, Sonny Dickson and Sonny
Dickson YouTube channel.
He’s
been doing this for years according to from Reuters as stated in “Australian
teen tests Apple tolerance with new iPhone leak”, published Thursday, Sep 5
2013 By Michael Sin, Reuters. According
to Sonny Dickson, quote: “I've been doing this for many years, so I know what
looks fake and what's not. I trust what they say to me -- but I also back up
the story with other people to make sure what I'm posting is legit”.
Indeed
as that's what I’m doing on my personal blog, My Thoughts on Technology
and Jamaica, albeit I don’t have nearly as much traffic due to my lack of
exclusive content and friendlier interface – and the fact my topics on Telecoms
are pretty boring. He on the other hand, has a handle for what’s hot, sticking
to posting merely leaked pictures and spends approximately 12 daily doing
maintenance on his website, which he claims achieved approximately 1 million
hits each month making him a cool US$1,850 (A$2000) in August 2013.
Curiously
the Cupertino Kids from Apple are fans of his, as Apple seems to know and
hasn't yet spoken to him or raised any objections, despite the possibility of
him breaking the Law. Based on his web analytics which he claims has tracked IP
addresses from Washington D.C. and Apple's headquarters in Cupertino,
California. quote: “Most of the traffic is from the U.S. - I've had 590 hits
from Apple and about 53 from U.S. Homeland Security in August”
If
these pictures are anything to go by, there may eventually be a Gold Version as
well, rounding out the colours for the 9.7” Apple iPad 5 to Space Grey, Silver
and Gold like the Apple iPhone 5S as stated in my blog article
entitled “Apple
has launched the Apple iPhone 5S and 5C on Tuesday September 10th 2013 - Apple
iPhone Strategy is to Go Global to beat Samsung”
Additionally,
there may also be a multi-coloured Apple iPad Mini coming, all decked out in
Blue, Green, Yellow, Red and White as predicted in my blog article
entitled “Apple
iPhone 5S and Apple iPhone 5C sold 9 million units over the Weekend - Apple
beats Wall Street's Great Expectations for Christmas 2013”.
Thus
Apple may also be in for Record Weekend Launch Sales for the Apple iPad 5 and the
Apple iPad Mini also a follow-on of it’s smartphone parents as stated in my blog article
entitled “Apple
iPhone 5S and Apple iPhone 5C sold 9 million units over the Weekend - Apple
beats Wall Street's Great Expectations for Christmas 2013”.
The Apple
iPad 5 and the Apple iPad Mini are slated for a launch sometime in October 2013,
most likely Friday October 11th 2013. Stay tuned to this blog for
more exciting news on the Apple iPad 5 as it turns over a new Gold coloured and
multi-coloured leaf!
