The Apple iPad Invite: What It Really Means

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

There's more! Read http://mashable.com/2013/10/16/apple-ip ... -it-means/ for the rest!Apple invitations to major product unveilings are short, cryptic messages, stingy with words and visuals, but if you read them correctly, rich with meaning. The emailed invite to Apple’s Oct. 22 event in California is no different. Read carefully: It’s a veritable font of information.
This invite features the top edge of a white Apple logo (an indication that at least one product will be all white) and at least a dozen Apple logo-style leaves in eight or nine different colors. From this, I glean two things: Whatever Apple introduces next week will arrive in at least five color options, and the existence of so many leaves could be a nod to the number of products unveiled — but more on that later.
This is the core messaging on the invite, and many took it to mean that the product rollout would have something to do with colorful product covers. I see it differently — in fact, I'm fixating on the words “a lot.”
Apple does not use words lightly, so I take these two words as a clear sign that this event will feature at least three new products: a redesigned full-size iPad, a Retina iPad Mini, an updated Apple TV and ... something else. I also think there is some hidden meaning in the word “cover.” My guess is that the new iPad covers will offer far greater functionality than simply turning into a foldable stand and acting as a device sleep blanket.
