The time for new Apple products is here again.
Last week, Apple sent out invites to the press for an Oct. 22 event in San Francisco. Coming on the heels of a September event in which Apple unveiled the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c, the invite states, "We still have a lot to cover." The company is widely expected to announce new iPads during the event on Tuesday.
A live video stream of the event is being made available on Apple's website. We will be providing live updates below throughout the announcement. And be sure to check out HuffPost Tech after the event for all our news and analysis.
Cook is recapping all the new products, and showing a new ad for the iPad Air.

And that's it. It's over.
