Maybe they'll just replace the current iTouch with a bigger one, thereby making it a mini-iPad?

That might make sense, in a way. As it currently stands, the iTouch is basically an iPhone minus the phone.
Yes, I forgot about that; therefore, this new device shall be known as: "mini humongous iPhone minus the phone"

Hi, My mobile phone a Nokia N85 has an OLED display, and it is the worst phone that I have had for sunlight viewing. It looks great in dim lighting, but nearly useless out of doors. This is a common complaint that people have of the of the OLED N85.

If they make a 7" iPad and it is substantially lighter than the current iPad then this may be much more preferable for extended usage, when holding the device with the hands. It would be worth losing a little bit of screen for lightness. Of course if they can remove weight from the current iPad then that also would be good.

Maybe Apple will call the smaller screen iPad, iPad Nano, to follow their naming convention for the iPod.
The next smaller model would then be the iPad Shuffle. Like the iPod shuffle it would have a touch interface but no display.

There is also the "mini" designation, a la the old iPod mini and the Mac mini.
