I plan to get one once I’m finished school. The larger iPad is simply better when your taking notes and reading a LOT. But once I’m finished school, I think my needs will change and the smaller form factor will be better. I’m just glad Apple is offering the option of a smaller device.

Bottom-line Apple made a huge mistake by not having a comparable sharp screen as the Nexus 7.
And yes I am an Apple fan boy.

Will Amazon and Google stand behind their products? In the last year, I sent my iPod in for repair, free, and brought my iMac in for a new hard drive, free, and a new screen, also free. So my three year old iMac is now close to new. Gizmos always break eventually. Where will I go to fix the Fire or the Nexus?

The mini looks like a solid device. A bit overpriced in my opinion, but quite nice.

That said, it’s interesting to see how tech blogger preferences change. Screen resolution used to be a make-or-break issue, but this month it no longer seem so critical. When the Android tablet ecosystem is comparable to iOS’s (if a dream, it’s both imminent and inevitable) and OEMs are making aluminum body devices, I wonder what the most prized tablet attributes will be then.

The mini seems to be really hot. Personally even we have iPad3, i’m using iPad2 works better then iPad3. Sometimes I wish smaller tablet, now Apple made it.

There is a lack of selection of Docking stations for lightning, i found CompleteDock on http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1610299429/complete-dock-the-best-ipad-dock-and-more suitable for new Apple devices.

Om! Wait. Didn’t you or somebody within GigaOM say it was Scott Forstall who was responsible for making the case for mini?
