Did they really take the retina out of it?

Apple could stamp their logo into the side of a dog turd and sell it to the iFaithful for $399.

Even all the Apple guys I talk to were giving Apple mad shit...

I dislike the iPad mini. But then, I hate all small tablets. I don't understand the point. They're too small to do much more than my phone will.

They've got a place...just not for me at this point. There's a 27" iMac in my future though, that's for darn sure.

As far as the pricing goes, they don't care. People that bought on price have been buying plastic knock off tablets for a while now anyway and they're not interested in that market. If you don't have to compete on price, why would you?

Price comparison between the Mini and the iPod touch? The success of the iPod Mini in comparison with the Classic shows that they aren't necessarily competing products. Plus there is a big difference between iPad apps and iPhone apps.

If I had cash sitting around where I could pick up an iPad now I might be tempted to get the iPad 3 instead of the 4 since it would still work with all the 30 pin connectors I've got around here.

I heard threes are going to become obsolete as soon as the fours come out. In other words if you want a three you have to get them now before they stop making them. Or buy used

That's good. I like this one better though.

My iPod Touch had the same issue. Could barely hold a charge through a run. I got it for free with my laptop, so I didn't give a shit really; I just figured it was a lemon. Then one day it went insane and I had to reset it... perfect battery life after.
