If you have been patiently waiting for Tumblr to launch an iPad version of its application, you will be pleased to learn that today the company has finally launched it.

Tumblr has today rolled out a new updated to its iOS application which brings with it support for Apple’s iPad and iPad mini devices, which has been coded in native iOS rather than relying on HTML
This native iOS coding is the reason why the Tumblr iPad application has taken so long to roll out says Tumblr. The new iPad app allows you to discover and view image on larger iOS screens and includes a handy navigation bar situated on the lefthand side of the screen.

The latest Tumblr iOS app complete with iPad support is now available to download from the iTunes App Store for free. Enjoy!

What’s a morning without any new Apple rumors? Well, there’s speculation that the tech giant is readying production of another iPad mini with a Retina display within the next few months, according to RBC Capital Markets analyst Doug Freedman.

In a research note, Freedman said the “iPad Mini Gen-2: Apple’s gen-2 iPad mini is getting pulled-in, and is likely to have several new suppliers, with TXN gaining content.” Supposedly, the term “pulled-in” means that Apple plans to push up the next iPad mini’s launch schedule. This isn’t surprising if consider what the company just did with releasing a revamped version of the fourth-generation iPad, only eight months after its predecessor.

Of course, like most rumors, take this with a grain of salt. We don’t have any specifics on an exact time frame for release — not to mention — the first gen iPad mini hasn’t finished its global roll out yet. So if these rumors are true, we should expect the next iPad mini to be announced late spring or early summer. An early release will certainly cause users to think twice about getting the mini that’s out now.

Regardless, we can expect the next iPad mini to launch sometime in 2013.
