Terry McGraw of noted book publisher McGraw-Hill announced some very [not really] shocking and exciting news during his interview on CNBC. McGraw openly blabbed about how books from his publishing company will be featured on the new Apple tablet that is being announced “tomorrow.” McGraw also said that his company had been working out this content deal with Apple for a long time [ouch] and that the “tablet will be based on the iPhone operating system” [double ouch].

Whether he speaks the truth, is completely lying or just misinformed— we still think Terry McGraw might be getting a very angry phone call from someone wearing a black long sleeve turtle-neck, light denim jeans and casual tennis shoes—if you catch our drift.

Now watch the magic happen in this video…

Prime Day deals are still running for a few more hours with the event ending at the end of today. That still gives you a little more time to committing to buying an Apple iPad Mini while it's on sale. Right now, it's at one of its lowest-ever prices at $380 instead of its regular price of $499. Previous dips are usually more like $399 so this is a sweet extra saving over the usual discount. By now, you've probably considered Prime Day iPad deals for a little while. Don't delay, snap up the iPad Mini now before you miss your chance. If you still need convincing, here's a quick look at what to expect and why it's worth it.

Why you should buy the Apple iPad Mini
The Apple iPad Mini is a little powerhouse of a tablet. While so many of the best tablets focus on size, the Apple iPad Mini provides a great experience while being the kind of device you can toss into your bag. It has an attractive 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display that makes whatever you're doing look great. It has True Tone support along with P3 wide color so it always looks good, whether you're streaming your favorite shows or even indulging in a little video editing.

UPDATE: Just hours after rolling out the security update, Apple has pulled it after users began experiencing compatibility issues with Safari for sites such as Instagram and Facebook. If you've already installed the update, you can downgrade on iPhone and iPad by going to Settings, then General. Select About and then OS version. Finally, tap Remove Security Response.

For Mac, select the Apple logo top left and then System Settings. Next, select General, and then About. Under macOS, select the "i" (information) button located beside the OS version. Where it says Last Security Response, select the Remove & Restart button, and then Remove Response and Restart in the prompt.
