The guys from Cult of Mac have discovered references to both Apple Pay and Touch ID for the iPad in the latest iOS 8.1 Beta, so it looks like the new iPad Mini 3 and iPad Air 2 will come with iOS 8.1 out of the box.

As well as a fingerprint sensor, both models of the new iPad are rumored to come with Apple's new A8 processor and we are also expecting new cameras as well.

We are expecting Apple to launch both models of the new iPad some time in October, and both devices are rumored to hit the stores before the end of October.
