Grahame Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Maybe Larry should buy his next iPad from Walmart - they drop it so you don't have to! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=L_DLJK4o2YM http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/11/09/walmart_employees_filmed_trashing_ipads/ Quote
HeadphoneAddict Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Apple says my 3G iPad mini will arrive on 11/20. But I think I'm going to offer it to my college daughter while she's home for Thanksgiving. If she accepts the gift but I had fun playing with it before she leaves then I can get another one. Quote
justin Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 one can never have too many ipads Quote

swt61 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 How many minis did you order? He just started sending an iPad mini with every Pico. It has the manual downloaded in it. Quote
HeadphoneAddict Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 He just started sending an iPad mini with every Pico. It has the manual downloaded in it. But then he's gotta charge $329 for the Lightning to USB camera connection kit to make up the difference. Quote

What's with all the hostility? Quote
The Monkey Posted November 11, 2012 Report Posted November 11, 2012 Winter is coming. This just made me laugh and fart. Quote

grawk Posted November 17, 2012 Report Posted November 17, 2012 I've had my ipad mini for a couple of days, and I can say that while it works for me, I can't imagine recommending it for most people. I know why they made the compromises they did, but it's somewhat underwhelming. iPhone apps scale up to look REALLY pixelated. The touch points are a little small, so it can be annoying for web browsing. What I like about it: It's about the perfect size for a car GPS It fits in the bag I wanted to carry it in, that I could never fit the full sized ipads in It's small enough to be comfortable reading at night as I'm falling asleep It runs IOS apps Quote
morphsci Posted November 17, 2012 Report Posted November 17, 2012 (edited) Finally have the iPad4 set up exactly like the ipad2. Really pretty similar. ... Well except for the fact that the retina display is so crisp it makes the ipad2 display seem like line printer graphics. Other than that they are pretty similar. .... Well except for the fact that the new processor makes everything on the iPad2 seem like it is running on a Timex/Sinclair and the LTE makes the 3G seem like things are running in reverse and even the WiFi seems faster. But other than that, it's pretty much the same. Edited November 17, 2012 by morphsci Quote
blessingx Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 +1 for Timex Sinclair reference. Quote
Aimless1 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Posted November 18, 2012 Had the mini for about 10 days. I can see how many would like the ipad better, but for me the size is perfect. Easy to carry and much easier to handle than the ipad. Great for surfing the web, email and books. Did I mention how small it is? Quote

The Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Posted November 19, 2012 I've noticed that my 1st Gen iPad has become annoyingly slow. I'm not sure whether this is due to upgrading to the iPhone 5 or an actual degradation in performance. I actually wiped the device and started fresh and it's still sucky. What gives? Quote
Grahame Posted November 19, 2012 Report Posted November 19, 2012 An apple "upgrade" to encourage you to "upgrade"? Quote
The Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Posted November 19, 2012 I would get the iPad Mini in an instant if it had a retina screen... Quote
