You make it way too easy, pal.

He takes this 'iPad mini' seriously.
I wonder if there is an iPhone 5S.....hmm....
This. He doesn't understand that Dalrymple is Apple's official unofficial announcement team

He's just setting himself to sound like he was right no matter what happens. If it doesn't come out, he was right because it was just a rumor. If it does release, he plays the "it was a rumor at the time" card. He wants to crow later.
And now I can say.....Told you so.
When anyone on any forum says this item will not come out, and without proof to back it up, I do not listen to them, and wonder why they want to look foolish later on when it does come out, is beyond me. But silly people do silly things
No, he said there would be an event in September for the iPhone and an event in October for iPad Mini, he also said the iPad Mini event would be on the 23rd, right on time today an invitation from Apple showed up for the 23rd.
That goes for all humans. Oh I know, you're looking to get in your little digs. yawn. children.

Whooosh. The whole thing went right over your head. I remember when this was a tech forum.

I just deal in facts, Buckey.
Whether or not something exists is not dependent upon an official announcements and widespread acknowledgement.
If, for example, you make a little origami dragon, it exists as a real physical thing. Whether you hold a press event for it or not isn't relevant to the fact of its existence.
There may be rumors about your dragon. They might get things wrong; they might get things right. But in this example your origami dragon is real and the accuracy of rumors is irrelevant.
Going back to the iPad Mini. If it is officially announced in October, then undoubtedly it existed back when you last said it didn't. They don't manufacture millions of these things overnight. The announcement doesn't cause them to instantly exist.
What could we possibly know about this? We are just children!
This thing is getting frankly ridiculous. He will never admit he was wrong. Go back one page and you'll see I predicted correctly the kind of attitude we were going to witness.
Look, he answered 3 people and he still didn't answer my question about when was I wrong.
I would not expect an answer. Be thankful that he at least identified himself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet) so you don't have to feed him any more.

Nah, I don't think he considers himself a troll
He really really really thinks he's right after all
