I doubt we will see iPads next week.
While the size of the Mini 6 is great, unless you really need "small," the 4GB of RAM in the 6 is concerning. The Air 5 and low end Pros have 8GB. The Air is only $100 more than a Mini 6, but its got more horsepower, with the M1 chip.
Granted, most people will get along fine with 4GB, but you don't know what the future holds.
I think the chance for new iPads is very high. We shall see. The Mini has PLENTY of fans.
The rumor mill is all over the place, but I'm fairly certain this is going to be a Mac-only event. I'm not in the market for a new iPad OR a new Mac, so I'm just observing this time around, but it doesn't feel like iPads are coming to me.
I'm ready to buy a Mini, but I'll hold off till the weekend just in case.

Ok, I think you are still wrong anyway. Apple are not spending 2 hours to talk about an upgraded m chip!
No, but they will pad it with stories how people will use the M3's features to do all these new things.
We will see, either way I’m thinking of selling my M1 11” Pro for the next Mini, I need a new Mac computer and iPad OS just isn‘t as good as a computer. And I want to play games and find the bigger iPad too big really. I only use the iPad for content consumption and social media, not what I thought I would do with it. I looked at the Mini 6 too at the time.
Glad I took the plunge and purchased. Looks like it will be a while before a new mini is released.
Nah that‘ll be it now, in the last couple of years Apple has announced new iPads in. March April time so next year will probably be the same.
But the mini can also be had on sale or refurb? BY default it’s always around £300 cheaper than the iPad Pro in the UK. Thr iPad Pro IMO is overpriced, it ’starts’ from £899!
