Reports are filtering through that from the end of October, right up until mid-December, Apple will release a few exciting new products they want to share with us. As long as we stick to their pre-determined Ts and Cs, obviously.

MacOSRumours is stating that one of their "oldest and most reliable sources in Cupertino" has whispered that the long-time rumoured Mac mini's death is about to finally come true, and it shall be reborn as the Mac nano.

Although "nano" may not be final product name, the suggestion is that the new Mini will be "as small in the horizontal as an internal optical drive will allow, and a little over 2/3 the height".

"Overall volume will be shrunk almost 25%, weight by about 20% and an all-new enclosure will be strikingly different from the design that has been the Mini's defining feature since its introduction."

As well as getting the scoop of the revamped small form factor PC, MacOSRumours goes on to state that Apple TV will also be getting an update with the addition of an optical drive and larger hard drives.
