Apple is expected to launch two new iPads -- the iPad 5 and iPad mini 2 -- at an event next week in San Francisco. As usual, the rumor mill has cranked out a lot of speculation surrounding the next-generation tablets, as well as buzz around other possible product announcements, including a new MacBook Pro line.
But what we'll see for sure will remain a mystery until Tuesday. Will the iPad mini get its first "retina" display, despite rumors that suggest the supply chain is holding up the process? How about Apple's new fingerprint sensor Touch ID making its way to the tablets? And what about a few surprises?
